A Rise in Bleisure Travel & Immersive Events

As we reflect on the evolving event landscape at Kalahari Resorts & Conventions, two growing trends have emerged in 2024 that are shaping our outlook for 2025: the rise of bleisure (business and leisure) travel and the growing demand for experiential and immersive events. Both trends demonstrate that businesses are looking to spice up conferences for attendees with more personalized and meaningful experiences. It emphasizes the importance of offering a flexible environment where work and play can seamlessly coexist, and Kalahari is perfectly positioned to support them.

1. Business and Leisure Travel:    

Kalahari’s unique combination of flexible conference space and world-class amenities—like an indoor/outdoor waterpark, full-service spa, and diverse dining options—makes it an ideal destination for mixing business with pleasure. Attendees can unwind after meetings, enjoy family-friendly activities, or indulge in a luxurious spa day, enhancing both their work and relaxation experiences.

2. Experiential & Immersive Events:

Kalahari Resort & Conventions offers a variety of team-building opportunities, from miniature golf to more customizable activities like wine tasting classes and cooking demonstrations, designed to engage attendees in memorable ways. These experiences foster collaboration and connection, creating lasting impressions for both corporate groups and even incentive travel.

For your next meeting, look for a location that goes beyond offering traditional presentations to foster deeper, richer engagement with Kalahari Resorts & Conventions in the Pocono Mountains.
