PPL Center in downtown Allentown, PA


Diamond award winning 302-room hotel, ten dining choices featuring three by world famous chef, Emeril Lagasse, shopping at The Outlets at Sands Bethlehem, the hottest live acts at The Sands Bethlehem Event Center, and professional facials and spa services at Europa Spa and Salon, and it is clear why this venue has become such a des- tination.


Those who wish to plan an environmen- tally responsible event can get more from their meeting at Sands Bethlehem as well. Their Green Meeting Concierge serves as a dedicated guide for the group, while the resort's Sands ECO360° event planning tool is used to craft a customized sustainable experi- ence throughout the event. At the con- clusion of each green meeting held here, the resort can consolidate the sustain- able event metrics into a Sands ECO360° Event Impact Statement, which is a comprehensive report that covers energy and water consumption, recycling rate, carbon emissions and highlights of sustainable initiatives - all in one place.

what’sNEW


PPL Center is a state-of-the-art multi- purpose arena in downtown Allentown that is managed by Global-Spectrum. The arena seats more than 10,000 for concerts and more than 8,500 for Phantoms professional hockey games, making it the region’s largest events venue. The amenities-packed PPL Center has been a catalyst for growth in Allentown. It will play host to more than 140 events each year, including the Phantoms, the AHL affiliate of the NHL's Philadelphia Flyers, the Lehigh Valley Steel Hawks arena football team, live concerts, family shows, trade shows, figure skating events, youth sports, high school and collegiate events and more.


Like the PPL Center, the Renaissance Hotel Allentown is serving as another huge part of the city's recent downtown renaissance. This upscale hotel brings a unique, elegant and trendy hospitality experience to the community.


The Renaissance Allentown is part of a place; a destination of sorts, where peo- ple will again come to stay, work, and


play in the heart of Allentown. Located at the corner of Hamilton and 7th Streets, the hotel is within walking dis- tance to over fifteen restaurants, cafes, bars and lounges, each offering a differ- ent fare or expression of the region.


Visitors also can enjoy the Cultural District, which features the history of the Liberty Bell Museum; the Art Museum of the Lehigh Valley; or Miller Hall and the Allentown Symphony Orchestra - all within a few blocks of the Renaissance Hotel.


A welcoming approach to old-world hospitality with an urban vibe and new- world flair, The Hamilton Kitchen and Bar harkens back to the days of the public house, where both locals and visitors gathered for a heartwarming good meal, great conversation and flowing libations. The Hamilton Kitchen and Bar is located across the street from both Renaissance Hotel Allentown and PPL Center, making it a great place to host an off-site meet- ing with a varied menu.
