Pontevedra offers a variety of unique venues for hosting events, from its historic squares and churches to modern cultural centers. The Pazo da Cultura, a modern, multifunctional event space, is one of the top choices for conferences, exhibitions, and performances. The city’s historical charm also makes it a picturesque location for outdoor events, with plazas like the Plaza de la Ferrería serving as ideal backdrops for cultural festivals, markets, and public gatherings.
In addition to the Feira Franca and Festas da Peregrina, the city hosts several events throughout the year that draw large crowds, such as the Pontevedra International Jazz Festival and the Salón do Libro Infantil e Xuvenil (Children’s and Young People’s Book Fair). These events showcase the city’s cultural vibrancy and offer ample opportunities for event organizers to tap into a well-established local audience.
Pontevedra’s accommodations range from charming boutique hotels in the historic center to larger, more modern hotels like the Parador de Pontevedra, which is housed in a 16th-century palace, offering guests an elegant and historical setting.
