We invite you to get creative with your next meeting. Think outside the box and have a little fun while your team brainstorms the next big idea for the company. For example, we love to use our attractions as meeting venues because they showcase our history and what makes Scranton different.
Scranton and the surrounding area, collectively known as Lackawanna County, saw its rapid growth during the Industrial Revolution as our forefathers led the way in the coal and iron industries. Today, these behemoth structures such as the Iron Furnaces, the steam trains at Steamtown National Historic Site, the coal veins of the Lackawanna Coal Mine Tour, and the trolleys at the Electric City Trolley Museum all serve as portals of creativity for your team to become innovators in their fields.
While the seriousness and nostalgia of our history is a major feature in our current tourism, Scranton has also taken on the role of being host to “The Office” and all of the show’s quirky, fun, and downright hilarious moments. So while we encourage groups to work hard we also want them to have so many laughs their abs hurt, which is why we have created “The Office” walking tour and a teambuilding activity to bring the spirit of Michael Scott (world’s best boss) to the itinerary. Below is a list of potential venues for your next event. We encourage you to call the Lackawanna County Visitors Bureau to take advantage of their meeting planning, organizing, and sales/marketing tools for a successful visit. Planners can contact Alexa Peregrim, Group Sales Manager, directly at 570-468-8625 or aperegrim@visitnepa.org.
