The whole point of going to a conference is to alter your surroundings. To remove yourself from everyday, automated routines and awaken your minds to new possibilities. Welcome to the last place anyone would expect.

The NWT is one of the most pure places on earth. Filled with an abundance of wildlife, large and small, from grizzlies and bison to finches and lemmings. It’s where bush planes and waterways count as transportation first and recreation second. And where breathing the air is enough to convince you that even the best part of your business can still get better. (Seriously)

In the colder months the night sky pulses with the greatest show on earth – Aurora Borealis (The Northern Lights). In the summer, the daylight hours extend pretty much around the clock, and the accompanying energy boost will keep you at the top of your game.

From wilderness lodges to hotels and B&Bs, our professional staff will help you discover a location and arrange activities. We’ll share the best-kept secrets of the land and give you a northern experience that will live on, and on.

For 50 to 500 delegates, Yellowknife, capital of the Northwest Territories is the ideal locale. Six hotels offer over 500 rooms, plus there are motels, apartment hotels and cozy bed and breakfast establishments to choose from. Rates vary from $125 to $225 per night for a hotel room. Discount rates for conference attendees are available. Bed and breakfast suites range from $70 to $110 per night.

Nurtured by gold and now blessed with diamonds, Yellowknife, a small, wonderfully livable city of 20,000 is gateway to the North and one of the fastest growing business centres in Canada.

Yellowknife is a hub for transportation across the Northwest Territories and western Nunavut, and a perfect launch site for northern travellers. It’s a centre for culture, mining and exploration, and boasts some of the finest facilities for conferences and meetings in the Territories. The territorial capital is accessible by both air and road, and offers a relaxed sophistication that is unique in a city this size.

Comfortable and well-appointed hotels offer experienced, professional conference and banquet services. There are a wide range of restaurants in the city. Municipal services include arenas and theatres available for exhibitions as well as more intimate gatherings. There is a fine museum, and several art galleries offer uniquely northern mementos.

Yellowknife is recognized for its livability – walking and running trails thread through parkland and around lakes. There are a number of entertainment options available. And all around there’s the great outdoors. In summer head out on Great Slave Lake for fishing and touring. Tour operators can help plan unusual and exciting trips close by or farther afield. In autumn and winter, aurora viewing is a featured attraction.

Getting to Yellowknife is easy. There is daily jet service from Edmonton and Calgary and in winter, from Vancouver. For the full northern introduction, fly from Ottawa to Yellowknife via Iqaluit, capital of Nunavut.

If you love a scenic drive, follow the paved highway from Edmonton, 1500 km north to Yellowknife. Bring your camera – there are thundering waterfalls and plenty of wildlife along the way.

For a conference or meeting for 50 to 300 delegates, select a destination that’s right out of the ordinary – Inuvik, north of the Arctic Circle. Choose from three hotels, an apartment hotel and bed and breakfast services for comfortable accommodation. Prices range from $110 to $225 per night. Corporate rates are available.

Plan your next meeting in Inuvik and join an elite group of business travellers. This bustling town of 3,500 is the largest Canadian community north of the Arctic Circle. A centre for government, education, exploration and tourism, Inuvik lies at the edge of one of the world’s most scenic river deltas. It is just a short hop by air to Arctic communities like Tuktoyaktuk on the shore of the Beaufort Sea or to Aklavik in the Mackenzie River Delta.

Inuvik prides itself on being a business savvy community. The municipal Midnight Sun Complex hosts large trade shows and more intimate gatherings year-round. Professional planners will see to it that your event not only runs on time and on budget but also packs in a host of added attractions.

There is plenty to see and do in Inuvik. Take in an art or music festival. Compare notes with gardeners at the community greenhouse. Tour the igloo church, built by volunteers and a visionary priest. Tour Ingamo Hall, the largest log structure in the Arctic, crafted from a thousand logs rafted more than 1,300 km down the Mackenzie River. Take a boat tour or a flight over the delta to visit nearby towns and historic sites. In spring, drive on the frozen Mackenzie River (our ice road) to nearby communities.

Inuvik offers an introduction to the cultures of the Arctic: Inuvialuit, Gwich’in, Métis and southern Canadians meet and mingle here. This is the destination of the Dempster Highway, the only public highway in North America to cross the Arctic Circle. Sign up for a tour to the Arctic Circle on this scenic and storied highway, or charter a day trip by air to a wilderness park.

Getting to Inuvik is easy. Daily flights connect with Edmonton, Calgary and Yellowknife. The Dempster Highway is open most of the year and is one of the great scenic drives in Canada, winding north from Dawson City, Yukon.

The Inuvialuit named this town the living place, we would like you to think of it as your next meeting place.

Hay River offers seven hotels, motels and bed and breakfasts for conference and meeting atendees. Prices range from $75 per night for a B&B to $229 for an executive suite. Corporate discounts are available.

Hay River is a traditional meeting place for the Slavey Dene, who gathered on the sandy south shore of Great Slave Lake. Today’s travellers can still enjoy the sandy beach, and the spectacular Hay River, which boils over two scenic limestone waterfalls in a territorial park, then flows beside green fields and forest to its mouth on the big lake.

The town has a well deserved reputation for energy, ingenuity and a can-do attitude, and offers all the services and amenities you will need for a successful conference. Hay River is the only community in the Northwest Territories connected by road, air, water and rail to points north and south.

Powerful tugs and giant barges ply the river delta and the lake, hauling cargo north to Mackenzie Valley and Arctic coast communites. The railway carries freight. Hay River is a base for the Ice Pilots – Buffalo Airways’ nostalgic fleet of DC-3s that still carry passengers to Yellowknife across Great Slave Lake.

Modern and newly renovated hotels cater to business events and offer fine dining, sports bars and fitness rooms. The recreation centre, the Legion, and the golf club offer comfortable meeting facilities for groups large and small. Professional meeting planners will determine your needs and deliver a first rate event.

Hay River restaurants offer fresh whitefish from Great Slave Lake. There’s a small museum, an interesting fishing village, and an attractive golf course. Harbour tours are offered, and in winter there are dog team trips and expeditions onto Great Slave Lake to see the Aurora. Each Saturday during the summer there’s a fisherman’s market on the wharves in old town.

Just across the river from town and a half hour away by road is the K’atlo’deeche Reserve, which welcomes groups and can offer cross-cultural activities. For a team builder, try a day tour by charter bus to visit three spectacular waterfalls: Alexandra, Louise, and Lady Evelyn.

Daily flights connect Hay River with Fort Smith and Wood Buffalo Park and Yellowknife, with onward connections to Edmonton and Calgary. The Mackenzie Highway is paved from Edmonton. Daily bus service links Hay River with points south.

When you choose Hay River for your conference, you’re getting more than an attractive location on the south shore of the Great Slave Lake. You’re getting commitment from the entire community, who are always “up” to welcome conference delegates to the place they call home.

Of course you also have six hotels/motels to accommodate delegates; several caterers to prepare meals including entrees of our world famous whitefish; local conference planners and equipment suppliers, including trade show equipment; easy access by road or air; and ideal conference facilities in our new community centre.

And if that’s not enough, Hay River is also home to the North’s best golf course, largest marine transportation centre, and bustling Saturday fish market.

Hay River has everything you’ll need for a conference of 100 to 200 people, as well as lots of extras. Extras like spectacular waterfalls only a half hour drive from Hay River, trips on Great Slave Lake, a Dene cultural centre just across the river and walking trails throughout the community.

There are four hotels in Norman Wells, each with a restaurant. Prices range from $140 for a single room to $245 for an executive suite. Corporate discounts are available at some hotels.

Norman Wells is located on the Mackenzie River, where the river widens to about four kilometres. The town overlooks the river and mountain ranges to the west and south. Behind the town there is a small range of mountains accessible on foot or by vehicle. There are many trails and lakes complete with canoes for visitors.

The Aboriginal people here, the Sahtu Dene, have always known this place was special. They called it Le Gohlini, “where the oil is”, and oil is what helped to create Norman Wells. Huge deposits of sweet crude were first tapped 90 years ago, in 1921. The Heritage Centre tells the story of the oil boom and the natural history of the area.

Norman Wells is the economic centre of the Sahtu region and includes the Mackenzie Mountains and Great Bear Lake. The town is a transportation and tourism gateway, and offers a business atmosphere with a healthy dose of outdoor recreation. The hotels offer excellent meeting services and the enthusiastic support of the town’s residents is catching.

Aircraft are vitally important links between Sahtu communities. Local airlines have considerable experience showing visitors the best that the region has to offer. Fly out with experienced pilots to visit tiny log-built communities, or to find the perfect fishing lake. Norman Wells played a unique role in the history of aviation in the North and a new aviation-oriented park at the floatplane base helps to tell the story.

An air tour in the Mackenzie Mountains includes views of the famed Canol Trail – the route of a wartime supply line to Yukon and Alaska. Now one of the most challenging hiking trails in North America, the route winds through mountain passes, crosses surging rivers and pauses by unspoiled waterfalls.

Closer to town, boat trips are offered on the broad Mackenzie River. Visitors can also hunt for Devonian era fossils, exposed in limestone cliffs and creek beds. For a post conference tour with a real difference, book your group on a canoeing adventure with a mountain river outfitter or a trail ride on horseback in the mountains.

Getting here is easy – daily jet flights connect Norman Wells to Edmonton, Yellowknife and Inuvik.

Fort Simpson offers a range of accommodation from modern hotels and lodges to cozy bed and breakfasts. Prices range from $125 for a single to $205 for an Executive Suite. Seniors rates are available.

This island village of 1300 is one of the oldest settlements in western Canada. It has been a gathering place for the Dene for centuries. In the Slavey language it is called Liidli Kue, meaning place where rivers meet. Here the Liard River joins the mighty Mackenzie River on its way north.

Once the northern base for the fur trade, Fort Simpson today is a government, transportation and recreation centre with direct access to Nahanni National Park Reserve. The town offers an interesting mix of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal cultures, culminating in a summer art and music festival.

Fort Simpson offers a unique advantages for meetings and conferences. There are several meeting rooms in local hotels, and the new recreation centre can host over 100 in the community hall. Out of doors there is a heritage park and a community arbor overlooking the confluence of the Liard and Mackenzie Rivers.

The draw, of course, is the opportunity to visit Canada’s most famous and storied national park – Naha Dehe, called Nahanni. This park, recently expanded to include a whole watershed in the Mackenzie Mountains, features unique mountain and karst landscapes, free roaming wildlife and the amazing Virginia Falls, over 90 metres high. Visitors can tour the park or visit Virginia Falls on flights originating in Fort Simpson.

There are also fascinating local tours covering over two hundred years of history and some of the North’s most compelling stories. Stop in at the visitor centre. Conference atendees can also play a round of golf, take a jet boat tour on the river, or go fishing nearby for an afternoon. Fort Simpson still boasts some of the north’s finest artists working with traditional moosehide and beads and more contemporary media.

Fort Simpson is connected to Yellowknife by daily flights with connections to Edmonton and Calgary. The town is located near the junction of the Mackenzie Highway (from Alberta), and the scenic Liard Highway (from northern British Columbia).
