Home of Philadelphia Union soccer team, Talen is a multipurpose facility boasting 29 luxury suites, a full-service club restaurant, and built-in concert stage. Located just five miles from the air- port, this mixed-use development was named “Best Sports/Recreation Project of the Year” by Mid-Atlantic Construction magazine.


Fiore also suggests Holiday Inn and Suites at the Drexelbrook Corporate Events Center in Drexel Hill as an out- standing small meeting option for 2018. When it opens, it will be a 100-room hotel where Drexelbrook Corporate Events Center guests can stay overnight or host their meeting.


Highlights will include a business center, lounge and bar area, restaurant, exercise room, indoor swimming pool, two luxury bridal suites, and more.


In addition, the Drexelbrook Special Events Center will begin a renovation early next year to complement the new hotel.


“It’s not too early to reserve space as con- struction continues,” suggests Fiore.


Each of these venues and destinations has benefitted greatly from the value that small meetings provide. Among the most consistent sources of repeat business, these smaller conferences and meetings have proven their worth again and again.


Regardless of venue, whether capable of handling a few dozen or tens of thou- sands of attendees, each provides serv- ice and expertise to planners or smaller meetings just as they would for functions of superlative size.


These meeting groups represent much more than their numbers might indicate at first glance,


proving that small meetings do indeed “live large.”
