From 7–9 October 2025, Poland once again showcased its potential at IMEX America 2025 – North America’s largest trade show for the meetings and events industry, held at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas.
Over three vibrant days, the Polish stand became a hub of inspiring conversations, productive business meetings, and new partnership opportunities. At the expanded stand E1726 – twice the size of last year’s- Poland presented itself as a dynamic and creative MICE destination where professionalism meets authentic hospitality.
Poland. More than you expected
Participation in IMEX America 2025 confirmed Poland’s growing position as one of Europe’s most promising MICE destinations. Thanks to the commitment of our partners, engaging presentations, and meaningful discussions with industry professionals from across the globe, interest in Poland continues to increase year after year.
Alongside the Poland Convention Bureau and the Polish National Tourist Office in Chicago, Poland was proudly represented by:
LOT Polish Airlines, Warsaw Convention Bureau, Mazurkas Travel DMC Poland, Kraków Convention Bureau, ICE Kraków Congress Centre, Bespoke Agency Poland DMC, and Radisson Hotel Group Poland.
Visitors to the stand also had the opportunity to take part in mini-events and meet Tomasz Sobania – an ultramarathon runner and Polish ambassador – whose story of endurance and passion for sport inspired guests to discover Poland as a country where determination and creativity go hand in hand.

“During the three days of IMEX America, we met with event organisers from all over the world and presented Poland beyond the usual travel itineraries and brochure descriptions. We talked about exceptional venues, local flavours, and distinctive ideas that make events in Poland truly unforgettable. There were also many conversations about conference planning and our state-of-the-art congress infrastructure – from boutique spaces to large convention centres that can easily compete with Europe’s top destinations. Judging by the reactions, Poland is clearly gaining recognition on the global MICE map, and that brings us great satisfaction,” said Magdalena Rembek and Maja Leśny from Bespoke DMC Poland.
