The Marketing and Communication Department's Events and Outreach division collaborates with community partners to attract events, programs, conferences and other activities that stimulate travel to the city and result in significant economic impact for the business community.  The waterfront parks, cultural venues, historic sites and vibrant downtown offer dynamic settings for festive gatherings, TV and film production, meetings and sporting events.  The outreach staff offers event promotion and information services for participants.  

The outreach initiative also includes providing information services throughout the city, at attractions and accommodations, neighborhood and community events, and in city facilities.
