Daegu is the center of tourism and culture in the southeastern region of the country. Here, tradition and technology stand side by side. Besides its history, Daegu is well-known for its textile, machinery, metal and automotive industries. The greatest strength of Daegu as a MICE destination is that it has hosted many events related to cutting-edge technologies, including IT and mechatronics, as well as energy-related conferences and other incentives.

Established in 2003, the Daegu Convention & Visitors Bureau (DCVB) has been working hard to promote Daegu as a convention destination by providing professional services and information on the city and its facilities. The DCVB is increasing its national profile by collaborating with key agencies and industry experts like the Daegu Metropolitan Government, the Daegu Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the Daegu Tourism Association, the EXCO Convention Center, as well as various hotels, airlines, travel agencies, restaurants, advertising agencies and convention service providers.

EXCO, opened in April of 2001, is a premier exhibition and convention venue. It has two large exhibition halls and a convention hall (each measuring 3,872㎡). The column-free convention hall can accommodate 4,200 persons and is equipped with state-of-art sound and lighting as well as a simultaneous interpretation system for up to six languages. Major plans to expand the facilities are expected to be completed by 2011. After the expansion, the exhibition space will be twice the size it is now, and the convention facility will be able to accommodate more than 5,000 people.
