2014 promises to be a positive year for association congresses in Ljubljana. Based on Ljubljana Convention Bureau’s research, the current data shows there will be thirty events matching the following criteria: regional / European / international association events with a majority of foreign delegates, lasting more than one day and with at least 100 attendees.
Out of this number, ten congresses will attract more than 500 delegates; among them, two have an expected attendance between 1,000 and 1,500 delegates. The congress calendar is dynamic, therefore the figures will be further updated.
