Corporate Events in Provence: How to Organise Transportation for Your Guests

Plan for different arrival times

Guests attending the same event do not necessarily arrive together. Some land at Marseille Provence Airport (MRS), while others arrive by high-speed train at Aix-en-Provence TGV or Marseille Saint-Charles, sometimes several hours apart.

For the organiser, the challenge is to coordinate these arrivals and take each guest to the hotel or directly to the event venue. E-MOTION provides private transfers from the region’s main arrival points and adapts the vehicle to passenger and luggage requirements.

Aix-en-Provence and Marseille: a wide choice of corporate venues

The Aix-Marseille Provence area offers a broad range of settings for professional events. In Aix-en-Provence, companies can use the Congress Centre or select hotels and estates with dedicated meeting and event spaces.

In Marseille, venues such as Marseille Chanot, the Palais du Pharo and the World Trade Center Marseille Provence can host everything from business meetings to larger conventions and congresses. Many hotels also combine accommodation, catering and meeting rooms on one site.

Transportation throughout the event

The arrival transfer is often only the first stage. A corporate programme may require several journeys during the same day:

A chauffeur at disposal allows the same vehicle to remain available for several hours and the schedule to adapt to the real pace of the day. For larger groups, several vehicles can be coordinated for simultaneous or staggered transfers.

Sedan, SUV or van: choose the right vehicle

For events requiring additional capacity, E-MOTION can also coordinate trusted partner chauffeurs.

Centralised logistics for the organiser

For a company or event agency, centralised coordination avoids having to manage each chauffeur and transfer separately. Arrival times, flight or train numbers, hotels, meeting venues, restaurants and return times can all be brought together in one transportation plan.

The programme can then be adjusted for delays, schedule changes or the actual progress of the event.

After the meetings

A corporate event in Provence is also an opportunity for guests to discover the region. From Aix-en-Provence or Marseille, an evening, dinner or activity can be organised around Sainte-Victoire, Cassis, wine estates, the Luberon or Provençal villages.

Transportation then becomes part of the overall experience offered to your guests.
