Las Vegas Sands ECO360 | Green Meetings
The Sands ECO360 Meetings Program
As featured in the 2015 Sands ECO360 Report
Our program provides environmentally preferable options to meeting planners and clients. With three simple steps, we can help transform an event into a sustainable gathering at our Integrated Resorts.
Step1: Explore Green Meeting Venues
Our high-performance buildings, most of which hold third-party environmental certifications, provide the foundation for our program. All meeting clients benefit from our standard sustainable practices, seamlessly integrated into daily operations at no additional cost.
Step 2: Meet Green Meeting Concierge
When planners like to go above and beyond, our designated Green Meeting Concierge can customize their sustainable event.
Step 3: Select Sands ECO360 Meeting Options
We provide sustainable options to event organizers, offering ways to further reduce environmental impacts and give back to the community.
