Social programme

Social programmes can sometimes be more important than work done in formal sessions – after all, an exceptional experience may be a stronger motivational factor than yet another team meeting. We can support you in designing and arranging creative social programmes tuned to your specific needs and wishes.

Evening programmes

Experience, for example, an unforgettable reception in the arcade courtyard of the University of Vienna or a gala in the Hofburg - the imperial residence of the Habsburgs offers you a representative ambience and excellent conditions to put your event in the right light. The Hofburg has over 17,000 m² of event space, imperial splendour and state-of-the-art conference technology.

Another highlight of conferences is certainly a gala dinner to which the mayor of the city of Vienna invites you in the decorated ballroom of the Vienna City Hall.

At international conferences, a visit to a Heurigen with a typical Heurigen snack and live Viennese songs, e.g. in Grinzing, should not be missed.
