Alexandria is a great choice for your group gathering. Discover how productive and fun your meeting, conference, or event can be in the Alexandria Lakes Area. Unique spaces and friendly faces, Alexandria’s proximity to the Twin Cities and Interstate 94, and Explore Alexandria’s knowledgeable staff come together to make you shine.
Explore Alexandria will personalize a site visit designed to exceed the expectations of you and your attendees. More than just vacant spaces, each venue in Alexandria offers its own flair and can be tailored to accommodate your needs. The team will coordinate proposals within the Alexandria community, so you get the best options and pricing.

Traditional conference spaces like Arrowwood Resort & Conference Center on Lake Darling and Wyndham Garden Alexandria Hotel & Conference Center (formerly a Holiday Inn) offer flexible seating arrangements and accommodate anything from small board meetings to general sessions of 1,000 people. On-site catering, audiovisual, and lodging make both great choices for turnkey meeting planning. Destinations like Carlos Creek provide a beautiful campus designed to deliver memorable weddings, banquets of all types, and a team tuned in to bringing each client’s vision to life.

The community comes together to provide tertiary services—car rental, catering, florists, photographers, or fishing guides; whatever you need! Additional lodging in the area includes grand private vacation homes, resorts, and hotels of all sizes.
Explore Alexandria knows one size does not fit all. Once you have selected Alexandria, the Explore Alexandria team will assist as needed with execution. The team can suggest additions to your itinerary, provide area resources, produce name tags, and even line up a welcome from the mayor. Explore Alexandria’s job is to make you look good and make your experience in Alexandria positive and memorable for everyone. Contact Executive Director of Marketing Jean Bowman to get started.
