Kisumu is a natural meeting point for organisations working across western Kenya and the Lake Victoria region. With direct flights from Nairobi and good road links, it is easy for delegates to reach. Here is a simple checklist to help you plan.

1. Confirm your numbers and format

Decide early whether you need a single plenary room, breakout sessions or both. Acacia Premier offers a grand ballroom, three smaller ballrooms and a boardroom, so one venue can usually cover every part of your programme.

2. Plan travel and accommodation together

Booking delegates into the same hotel as the event saves time each morning and makes networking easier. Kisumu International Airport is around ten minutes away, and our team can arrange airport transfers for arriving guests.

3. Check your technical needs

List what you need for presentations, video calls and recordings, and share it with the venue in advance. Our business centre is on hand for printing and last-minute tasks.

4. Think about catering

Agree timings for tea breaks and meals, and collect dietary requirements with your registrations. Café Acacia and the Aqua Pool Bar & Grill can cater for everything from working lunches to evening receptions.

5. Leave time to unwind

A sunset reception on the rooftop is a memorable way to close a busy day of sessions.
