Conference organisers attach greater importance to ‘location’ than to any other
single criterion when selecting their sites. Location may be expressed in terms of
‘town’, ‘city’, ‘region’, or ‘country’. The widely accepted term to describe each of these
is destination . . . A destination . . . is usually a discrete area with identifiable
boundaries. Each . . . destination must contain a range of venues, facilities,
attractions, supply services, and infrastructure.
