Getting your group outside of the Meeting Space will be essential as in-person events become the norm again. From walking trips throughout the city to sailing along the beautiful waters of Lake Champlain.
Here are 5 great ideas for your group to get outside while you are in Burlington.
1) SET SAIL ON LAKE CHAMPLAIN
Adventure in smaller groups and explore the majestic setting of Lake Champlain by sailing tour. A number of vessels are docked in the Burlington Bay, from classic sailing sloops, racing yachts, and even house boats. Our local captains will get your group on the water in classic fashion, while educating them of the many sailing stories from the 6th Largest Lake in the U.S.
2) WINE & DINE
Visit one of the region’s most prestigious wineries. Dine along the vines, or stay cozy along the tasting bar. Our local Vineyards are an event planner’s dream, surrounded by beautiful vistas and accompanied by great food and drink, enjoy Iapetus, one of Vermont’s Wild Wine brands, or discover the selection of Vermont grapes and accompanying wines.
Book a private tasting with your group, or an after hours reception showcasing the magnificent wines of Vermont.
3) MUSIC TO MY EARS
A town the size of Burlington has no right to a music scene this good. Sure, we got lucky being a stop for tours traveling between NYC, Boston, and Montreal, but we’ve made the most of it, with events and venues that feature great local, regional, and national acts all year long.
4) LET NO MAN THIRST FOR GOOD BEER
Take the party to the lake on board with the Spirit of Ethan Allen. A cruise ship designed to make sure your party, group, or event enjoys Vermont’s most prized possession, Lake Champlain. With three decks and an overall capacity of just over 300 passengers, The Spirit could be your next off-site activity here in Burlington!
5) HIT THE LINKS!
From mountain resort courses and beautiful private courses, to picturesque public courses offering both 9 and 18 holes, Burlington is a great destination for your next golfing trip. Get out and play along the shores of Lake Champlain and enjoy the breathtaking views of the Adirondack mountains, or set a tee time high up in canopy of the Green Mountains and craft your game around the tough terrain while soaking in the scenery.
Situated in downtown Burlington, Burlington Country Club offers an outstanding option for group outings. From hitting the links, enjoying their multi-purpose function space, capping it off with their impeccable styled F&B. With the ability to accommodate many types of event, from business meetings, retreats, weddings, to company holiday parties, BCC offers an exemplary experience.
