Due to its strategic position, its easy accessibility by road, the TGV (only 2 hours 38 minutes from Paris and 3 hours from Roissy-Charles-de-Gaulle with a direct arrival in the city center in 4 minutes from the TGV station) or the Marseille Provence airport (120 national and international destinations 30 minutes by train, 45 minutes by car), its inestimable heritage, its intense cultural animation and its comfortable hotel capacity, Avignon constitutes a place of choice for hosting exceptional events in the heart of Provence.
The agri-food industry is one of the main economic forces – AGROPARC, a Technopole of excellence in the field of Food Intelligence, is home to the largest business incubator in the PACA region. It is historically dedicated to promoting food intelligence and is opening up to other sectors such as the digital sector (Avignon obtained the French Tech label in 2015).
Avignon has three competitiveness clusters: Innov'Alliance for food, well-being and naturalness; Safe Cluster for aeronautics; and Trimatec, a center serving ecotechnology.
The cultural and heritage influence of the City of the Popes, its comfortable hotel capacity and our two locations make it an ideal destination and a place of choice for hosting exceptional events in the heart of Provence.
