FAMs + Site Visits

One of the best ways to experience what Pittsburgh has to offer for your future meeting or convention is to attend one of our Familiarization Tours. These FAM tours are especially designed and exclusively available to professional meeting planners. The objective of these trips is to learn, understand and promote our destination for meetings and conventions. Meeting planners will have an opportunity to experience some of the local flavor that contributes to Pittsburgh repeatedly named “Most Livable City.
