Venue & Accommodations

The Vancouver 2010 Professional Development Event is taking place at the River Rock Resort and Conference Centre. The River Rock is a sophisticated and relaxing urban oasis; conveniently located in the heart of Richmond. With the addition of the new Canada Line, the Bridgeport Station rapid transit stop makes River Rock a quick 7 minutes from the airport, and 18 minutes from the downtown waterfront. If arriving by car, we’re a mere 10 minutes from Vancouver International Airport and 20 minutes from downtown Vancouver or the US border.

It is a AAA Four Diamond rated resort featuring a distinctly west coast style, coupled with stunning architecture, to create a vibrant yet tranquil atmosphere. River Rock’s four story lobby featuring ponds, cascading waterfalls and a variety of natural elements, transports you miles from anywhere.

River Rock features a myriad of amenities and services to make your stay as memorable as possible, including our famous 950-seat show theatre, state of the art convention and meeting facilities, nine restaurants and bars, deluxe fitness centre, tranquil spa, tropical swimming pool, water slide, plus a 144-berth marina.

For those wishing to stay at the River Rock during the event, there is a special rate available to conference attendees of $159.00. When you book, please reference the FMI 2010 rate to get the reduced rate.
