The urban heart of Abitibi-Témiscamingue, Rouyn-Noranda’s pulse is in tune with the rhythm of a society rich with artistic creations and collective enjoyment. The history of Rouyn-Noranda surprises with a heritage that tells of the emotion-stirring recollections of the immigrants who came here for a new life. As a business centre, Rouyn-Noranda offers a dynamic commercial basin that meets contemporary requirements in terms of consumer goods and services. Near the downtown sector, vacationers, plant and wildlife observers, hikers and explorers have the opportunity to find themselves in a nature setting that combines hills and lakes. These are testimony to the passing of the great glaciers that have sculpted the landscape. You will be amused, pampered, dazzled…and enchanted!

A CONVENTION CENTRE THAT WILL MEET YOUR HIGHEST EXPECTATIONS

One of the most advanced convention centres in Quebec that can comfortably host up to 600 people in 8 rooms that are at the cutting edge of technology. Accessible via a link to Hôtel Le Noranda, a very renowned dining room and the Jardin Spa Massothérapie.

AN URBAN DESTINATION IN THE MIDDLE OF NATURE

Val-d'Or is the logical link between the North and South of the province. Its position is all the more strategic with the fact that it is the main entrance to Abitibi-Témiscamingue; an unavoidable passage, whether you're going to James Bay or taking the Trans-Canada Highway to the West of the country. Val-d'Or is probably the only place where you can play golf with your guests in the morning and end your day with a gastronomic reception 300 feet undergroung ! Yout guests will be able to go from one of our golf courses, to the underground auditorium of the Cité de l'Or ; historic site of the former Lamaque Mine, at the origin of our city's creation.

Knowing that the success of any event rests on a sound organization, the Office du tourisme et des congrès de Val-d'Or will be pleased to assist you during the whole course of your preparations. Feel free to contact us for any additional information. Our staff will be happy to steer your committee in the right direction according to the specific nature of the event you are preparing.
