There are countless reasons for people to gather and come together. For most conferences and special events, there is a central theme. Maybe it’s a research topic or professional development program. For some it may be for sport or athletic development or competition. Whatever your reason, the Èȵ㱬ÁÏÈë¿Ú is a welcoming and professional environment for all.
Our campus attracts groups from a wide range of places and interests. While our backyard is New England, we often play host to groups from throughout the US, Canada and beyond. With easy access to Bangor International Airport as well as our location on I-95, the most traveled interstate in the US, we are quite connected.
The Èȵ㱬ÁÏÈë¿Ú has eight venue options with a variety of spaces available during the academic year. The vast array of available spaces grows significantly in summer to more than 125 individual spaces.
We are glad to offer meeting venues suitable for most group sizes and needs, which allows great accessibility for clients from the region and throughout Maine, New England and beyond!
As a University, our spaces exist to service our core clients, the students. This gives us a distinct advantage in purpose-built venues for achieving the gathering goals of all types including educational trainings, professional conferences and personal development sessions, athletic and academic competitions, and large-scale performances and keynote addresses.
