In Lehigh Valley, PA, planners will find yet another location that is just a short distance from cities like Philadelphia and New York that also offers many great options for smaller group meet- ings. Social media and communications manager, Katie Burger of Discover Lehigh Valley, talks more about what the area can offer.
“Set amid gentle hills and charming countrysides, Lehigh Valley is home to Allentown, Bethlehem and Easton as well as dozens of small towns and pic- turesque boroughs,” she says. “The region is steeped in pre-Colonial, early American and industrial history. Lehigh Valley has an impressive range of tourist attractions, too, including nationally rec- ognized events like Musikfest, wineries and breweries, the Lehigh Valley Zoo, outdoor activities, world-class sporting events, 10 colleges and universities, and is home to America’s favorite brands such as Crayola, Peeps, Mike and Ike, Martin Guitars and Mack Trucks. The region offers a diverse array of memo- rable things to do and plenty of dining options to fit every budget and taste.”
Established in 1752, the
Easton Farmers’ Market is the country’s oldest continuous open-air market.
The Lehigh Valley area is not only easy to get to, but also to get around in. Through

Burger says there are many venues and hotels in the Lehigh Valley area that can work well for small meetings and events, like Sands Bethlehem Resort and Casino, for example.
