It’s no surprise meeting planners report that attendance rises when they meet in America’s Historic Triangle of Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown. The unmatched combination of hands-on history, thrilling theme parks, world-class golf, arts and culture, the outdoors, and fine dining, shopping and evening entertainment will delight your delegates and their families, too. And, don’t let our size fool you. The Williamsburg area is a major conference destination that has served as host to some of the world’s most prestigious and demanding groups. In January 2006, the Virginia Gubernatorial Inauguration moved to Williamsburg for the first time since Thomas Jefferson’s in 1779. In 2007, capping a year-long commemoration of America’s beginnings here in the Historic Triangle, over 500 leaders from mature and emerging democracies met to explore the future of democratic institutions around the world. I Introduction to the Historic Triangle 2013 Meeting Planner Guide I 2 Greater Williamsburg Chamber and Tourism Alliance The Business Roundtable, an association of the CEOs of the nation’s 100 largest corporations, has met here annually since 1995. The U.S. Senate Democratic Caucus and NATO’s Defense Ministers also chose Williamsburg as their meeting site. In fact, the very first meeting held in the new world was in July of 1619 in the Church at Jamestown when America’s first legislative assembly met. In January 2008, the Virginia legislature returned to the Colonial Capital for its commemorative session held every fourth year. We can’t forget those meetings held with Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, George Mason and Patrick Henry debating the ideas of liberty, independence and personal freedom that led to the founding of American democracy. And how about that “meeting” between Generals Washington and Cornwallis on the battlefield at Yorktown in 1781? It seems safe to I Introduction to the Historic Triangle say that meetings here have been known to change “the course of human events.” In 2007, after a 50-year hiatus, Britain’s Queen Elizabeth returned to the Historic Triangle for the 400th Anniversary Commemoration. President George W. Bush also attended ceremonies during 2013 the Commemoration year here in Williamsburg. Over the years, we have enjoyed the honor of accommodating numerous other prestigious world visitors including the late Emperor Hirohito of Japan, Lady Margaret Thatcher, Prince Charles, and more recently Supreme Court Justice and Chancellor of the College of William & Mary, Sandra Day O’Connor, former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, and former Secretary General of the United Nations, Kofi Annan. Captain John Smith and the early colonists found their perfect meeting site at Jamestown. Washington, Jefferson and Patrick Henry found theirs at the Capitol and the Raleigh Tavern. You’re sure to find yours here, too. From five-star luxury to economy-minded properties, from golf courses to the College of William & Mary, there’s an ideal meeting spot here just waiting to welcome you. Discover the story of America’s beginnings at Colonial Williamsburg’s Historic Area, Jamestown Meeting Planner Guide I Settlement, Historic Jamestowne, Historic Yorktown, the Yorktown Battlefield and the Yorktown Victory Center. 3 For contemporary fun, enjoy the worlds of Busch Gardens and Water Country USA, and sit back and relax at the Williamsburg Winery. Experience Virginia’s rich heritage and culture at the Watermen’s Museum, James River Plantations and the Virginia Living Museum. Thousands of visitors come here each year to explore more than 150 factory and designer outlet stores in the Williamsburg area, including Williamsburg’s first indoor shopping mall, The Williamsburg Outlet Mall. From gifts to the latest fashions, Merchants Square offers one-of-a-kind specialty stores, including handcrafted reproductions. Shoppers can find gifts for everyone on their list at New Town, see snow at Yankee Candle and visit the quaint village of Yorktown boasting unique art, antiques and reproductions in a relaxed atmosphere among the historic streets and on the waterfront at Riverwalk Landing. For those who like to meet on the golf course, America’s Historic Triangle is one of the top 25 golf destinations in the world with 15 championship courses by the game’s top designers. With an average daytime temperature of 70 degrees, Williamsburg is the ideal place for golf year- round. Here are just a few quotes about some of our courses: “one of the top 10 new courses in the United States;” “the highest ranking in Virginia;” “ranked 40th in the top 100 you can play;” “one of the 50 best golf resorts;” and “outstanding… plan your next vacation around it.” Centrally located on the eastern seaboard, Williamsburg is 150 miles south of Washington, DC, midway between Richmond and Virginia Beach. Easily accessible, the Historic Triangle is served by Amtrak and three major airports: Newport News/Williamsburg International, Norfolk International and Richmond International. Williamsburg-Jamestown Airport, located just two miles from Colonial Williamsburg’s Historic Area, serves private aircraft.

  • Williamsburg Reserve Collection Celebrating the Orgin of American Style
    “So that the future may learn from the past.” — John d. rockefeller, Jr. 108 williamsburg reserve collection Celebrating the Orgin of American Style. 131109 colonial williamsburg Eighteenth-Century Williamsburg, the capital of the colony of Virginia, owed its inception to politics, its design to human ingenuity, and its prosperity to government, commerce and war. Though never larger in size than a small English country town, Virginia’s metropolis became Virginia’s center of imperial rule, transatlantic trade, enlightened ideas and genteel fashion. Williamsburg served the populace of the surrounding colonies as a marketplace for goods and services, as a legal, administrative and religious center, and as a resort for shopping,information and diversion. But the capital was also a complex urban community with its own patterns of work, family life and cultural activities. Within Williamsburg’s year round populations, a rich tapestry of personal, familial, work, social, racial, gender and cultural relationships could be found. In Williamsburg patriots such as Patrick Henry protested parliamentary taxation by asserting their right as freeborn Englishmen to be taxed only by representatives of their own choosing. When British authorities reasserted their parliamentary sovereign right to tax the King’s subjects wherever they reside, Thomas Jefferson, George Mason, James Madison, George Washington and other Virginians claimed their right to govern themselves by virtue of their honesty and the logic of common sense. Many other Americans joined these Virginians in defending their countrymen’s liberties against what they came to regard as British tyranny. They fought for and won their independence. And they then fashioned governments and institutions of self-rule, many of which guide our lives today.

  • Colonial Williamsburg to Resume Limited Onsite Programming June 14
    The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation P.O. Box 1776 Williamsburg, Va. 23187-1776 colonialwilliamsburg.org Colonial Williamsburg to Resume Limited Onsite Programming June 14 Select sites to reopen at reduced capacity, changes to guest experience; face coverings and social distancing required for staff and guests inside foundation-owned buildings Colonial Williamsburg will resume limited public programming at select sites on June 14. This first wave of openings is based on Virginia’s move into Phase 2 of the state’s Forward Virginia initiative. The foundation will open additional sites and expand programming in coming weeks and months pending government and public health guidance to further limit health risks associated with COVID-19. “We are eager to welcome employees and guests back to Colonial Williamsburg, but re- opening our public sites requires that we work together so that we all remain safe,” said President and CEO Cliff Fleet. “Our phased re-opening plan is based on state guidelines and is fully supported by our regional partners. With this plan in place, we can move at a measured pace toward our shared goal of a return to normal operations.” The following Colonial Williamsburg indoor and open-air sites will operate at reduced capacity and follow site-specific safety guidelines developed as part of the foundation’s COVID-19 business resumption plan, which is consistent with the state’s Phase 2 requirements: • The Art Museums of Colonial Williamsburg • Governor’s Palace • Capitol • Courthouse • Weaver trade shop • Carpenter’s Yard • Peyton Randolph Yard • Colonial Garden • Magazine Yard • Armoury Yard • Brickyard • George Wythe Yard • Custis Square, including tours The Williamsburg Lodge is currently open with additional hospitality operations expanding based on sustainable business demand.
