Historic, yet modern and vibrant, Spokane's past contrasts with cutting edge creativity, forming a city rich in heritage and innovation.  As the second largest city in Washington State, and the largest between Seattle and Minneapolis, Spokane is home to over 200,000 residents with a metropolitan population of more than 500,000.  Continuing to grow, Spokane is in the midst of a major renaissance that has led to the rebirth of a thriving artistic culture as well as nearly $3 billion of renovations and improvements to its downtown core.  A commitment to new technology and business development has helped Spokane become one of the best places to start a business in the nation. Spokane's Wireless HotZone provides the downtown area with free access to wireless internet anywhere outside (and with 260 days of sun in Spokane, who wouldn't want to be outdoors?)

As the business, medical, educational and entertainment hub of the Inland Northwest, Spokane is home to a myriad of cultural and recreational opportunities.   Recognized as the heart of this three state, two province region, you can enjoy shopping and dining, museums and galleries, Broadway and the symphony, biking and golfing... whatever you're looking for, you'll likely find it right here.

Spokane is an area that attracts the very best because honestly, it's a great place to live, work and play.  There is a passion for life that is evident everywhere, especially in the staff at the Spokane Regional Convention & Visitors Bureau.  When you're looking for great results, let us go to work for you!
