Spin-offs on all fronts
Every year, Saguenay hosts up to 80 major business and sporting events. These events are tremendous drivers of economic, tourism and social development for the region. Their spin-offs benefit everyone: organizations and their members, organizers, the community and visitors.
Business and sports tourism is a source of vitality for the entire region.
- It injects between $4 million and $7 million into the regional economy every year.
- It extends the tourist season and consolidates jobs that would otherwise be seasonal.
Hosting an event in Saguenay is a powerful way to showcase your organization's leadership.
- An invaluable opportunity for your teams to take part in a mobilizing project and innovate.
- An opportunity to highlight the know-how and skills of local specialists and to celebrate
For participants, experiencing an event in Saguenay means going from discovery to discovery, from pleasure to pleasure.
- Majestic surroundings;
- Warm welcome;
- Unique activities for guests to enjoy.
For you, as an ambassador, it's a chance to make a concrete contribution to the region's collective wealth over the long term, while living an exhilarating adventure.
Each year, Promotion Saguenay pays tribute to ambassadors who have organized an event on the territory, with an evening of recognition that is greatly appreciated by the ambassador community.

Ambassador testimonials
"We are very pleased to have been able to count on the financial support of Promotion Saguenay for the organization of the 40th ATEFQ convention in Saguenay in November 2023. The quality of the turnkey service offered for the organization of the flavour market with local artisans and the sightseeing tour of the region were greatly appreciated. These two activities enabled our delegates from all over Quebec to come and enjoy the warm welcome and distinctive experiences that Saguenay has to offer."
