Dine Arounds: Sign-up and Show up

The Dine Arounds at Pacific Contact offer an opportunity to get a taste of the host city.  Dine-Arounds will be held at nearby restaurants; most are within walking distance from the hotel.

You will find a wide selection of restaurants to choose from menus of both traditional and trendy cuisines. Dine with conference attendees to connect with old friends, develop new relationships and gain new experiences. 

Sign ups for the Dine Arounds will be available in early April to registered delegates only. Space is limited and on a first come first serve basis. Each diner is responsible for his or her own cheque.  We have arranged for separate cheques with each restaurant for your convenience.

Each Dine-Around restaurant will have a host.
