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. ​
