Ocean City is a destination where work feels lighter. This sentiment captures the essence of what makes Ocean City an ideal location for meetings and events, especially in today's climate where wellness is a top priority for planners and attendees alike.
As the focus on wellbeing continues to grow, meeting planners are increasingly seeking destinations that offer more than just functional meeting spaces. They want environments that promote health, relaxation and overall wellness. Ocean City perfectly aligns with this trend, providing a range of wellness programs and amenities designed to ensure attendees leave feeling rejuvenated and balanced.
Beach Yoga and Morning Wellness Sessions
Imagine starting your day with a calming yoga session on the beach, the sound of waves gently crashing in the background and the fresh sea breeze invigorating your senses. Ocean City offers organized beach yoga classes that are perfect for group sessions or individual practice. These sessions help attendees start their day with a clear mind and a sense of tranquility, setting a positive tone for the rest of the day’s activities.
Healthy Catering Options
Nutrition plays a critical role in overall wellness, and Ocean City's catering options reflect this understanding. Meeting planners can choose from a variety of healthy catering menus that include fresh, locally sourced ingredients. From energizing breakfast bowls to nutritious lunch options of fresh-caught fish and refreshing snacks, our catering partners, Sodexo Live!, ensure that every meal supports attendees' health and productivity.
Relaxation and Recreation Areas
Beyond formal sessions, it’s important to provide spaces where attendees can unwind and recharge. With the bay at the back door of our convention center and the ocean just two blocks from the front door, the Roland E. Powell Convention Center offers the perfect backdrop for any meeting.
Unlike the hustle and bustle of city environments, Ocean City provides ample space and a tranquil coastal setting. This peaceful atmosphere fosters inspiration and creativity, allowing attendees to feel more relaxed and open to new ideas. The fresh ocean air and scenic views contribute to a sense of well-being, making it easier for participants to engage deeply and return home feeling invigorated.
