Why Planning Pros Love Sedona Winters and Summers

Looking for the perfect meeting location

Every meeting planner has a list of what they look for in the perfect meeting location. Yours may include year-round ‘Goldilocks’ weather – just the right mix of warm sunshine and refreshing breezes. Or you may value a natural setting whose stunning landscapes inspire your group. Logistics are essential - your perfect location must be easy to get to with meeting facilities and accommodations that satisfy the most discriminating client.

With your judgment on the line every time, you can count on the Arizona destination that satisfies even the most demanding planning professionals - Sedona, The Most Beautiful Place on Earth.

Already famous for its beauty and sophisticated culture, Sedona will surprise you and your guests with a hidden gem: gorgeous off-season weather! February highs are a refreshing 60 degrees - the best hiking weather ever - while nighttime lows are in the high 30’s, perfect for light jackets and hot drinks around the fire pit. Seventy percent of February days are clear or only partly cloudy, offering ample opportunity for alfresco lunch breaks amidst Sedona’s stunning red rocks.

Clean winter air, bright sun and cool temps make the great Sedona outdoors perfect for attendee downtime.  Hiking among soaring red rock canyons, jouncing along on jeep tours of prehistoric ruins, or relaxing with meditative moments at our famous vortexes make Sedona an unforgettable meeting experience.  The fantastic view from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon is just two hours away through gorgeous Oak Creek Canyon.

Summer weather makes Sedona especially alluring for getaway retreats during the hot months. At an elevation of 4,500 feet, crisp mornings blend into warm afternoons and cool, starry nights, with an occasional shower refreshing the land and your conferees. This being Sedona, our hoteliers have created ample outdoor venues with breathtaking red rock views that will charm every one of your clients.

More than 4,000 guest rooms and 33,500 square feet of flexible meeting space at nationally known hotels, resorts and spas are the perfect complement to Sedona’s world-class art and dining scene.   The less-crowded summer scene makes discovering our small-town charm a joy.

Your attendees will love discovering why Sedona is on Top Ten lists for Best First Impressions, Most Stunning Views and everything in between. We also think the City of Sedona's commitment to sustainability will resonate with many of your clients. You can feel good about selecting a destination where balancing our environment and connecting visitors with Sedonans are built right into the experience.
