Cadiz – Europe’s oldest town
Those of you familiar with Cadiz will know there are few more sympathetic locations to host a maritime defence and security event in the world.
Cadiz represents a strategic location for both Spain’s navy and harbour protection agencies and is neighbored by the naval academy town of San Fernando, the US naval base of Rota, the Bodegas of Puerto de Santa Maria/Jerez de la Frontera and golf resort of Chiclana, and the huge naval and commercial shipyard that is home to Navantia – all just minutes away by fast ferries.
The venue itself – Palacio Congresos (a converted tobacco factory) – boasts extremely high standards of both conference and trade-show facilities and is situated on the marina, adjacent to both the navy and coast guard buildings.
There are a wide range of accommodations to suit all budgets (including a government hotel), many located just a few minutes’ walk from the venue, on the 17km long Vittoria beach, with its powder soft sand and from where – on a clear day – you can see the northern tip of Africa.
Getting to Cadiz
The nearest international airport is Jerez de la Frontera (just 15–20 minutes’ drive away).
Jerez is served internationally either directly (for example from London Stanstead or Frankfurt with Ryanair), or via Spain’s major airport hubs (Barcelona or Madrid).
Additionally Seville is approximately one hour’s drive away.
