OCCC's Visit Orlando Virtual FAM Tour Video
Greetings,

Last week, we welcomed the nation’s largest touring dinosaur exhibit, Jurassic Quest Drive Thru. This interactive, socially distanced experience allows visitors to stay in their vehicles while enjoying more than 70 photorealistic dinosaurs. Taking all the precautionary measures to provide a clean and safe event, Jurassic Quest prioritizes guest and employee safety to ensure adventurers have a thrilling good time.

Hosting events under modified operations has become our new normal and the OCCC is leading the way in providing safe events through our continued flexibility and resiliency. In January, we successfully welcomed Surf Expo, Jeunesse LEAD, Miss Earth USA, the Florida Fest Volleyball Tournament and Jurassic Quest – each incorporating extensive health and safety protocols, including physical distancing measures, larger aisles, virtual and hybrid components, increased sanitation, face coverings and more. This further demonstrates that we are working with our clients and partners to find new and innovative ways to continue Meeting Safely Today for a Stronger Tomorrow.

We remain steadfast in our commitment to highlighting how Orlando is the most trusted destination for hosting your meeting and events. This week, we joined Visit Orlando as they hosted an interactive virtual FAM Tour showcasing the destination’s hotel and meeting partners. Our leaders engaged in great conversation and feedback from current and perspective clients and we look forward to continuing those dialogues.

As always, we thank you for your continued support and trust in The Center of Hospitality and look forward to hosting your event at the OCCC in the near future.
