On the road at conferences and events: Top destinations for business events
To ensure that your business conference not only runs smoothly, but that your customers, business partners and employees feel comfortable, meticulous planning is necessary. One of the main things you should focus on is the location of the event. If everyone involved feels comfortable, this will have a significant impact on how your conference goes. In our guide to business conferences, we therefore present the top locations for business events. Whether it's meetings, incentives, conferences or exhibitions - there's sure to be a MICE location to suit your needs.
Which facilities are suitable for meetings?
Most meetings and conferences that are not held in your own company are usually held in hotels with their own meeting rooms. These have advantages, of course. Such conference rooms are equipped with the latest technology; during breaks you can help yourself to the buffet. If the conference lasts several days, overnight accommodation is also provided. If you like, you can take advantage of various other offers at the hotel. For example, an organized hike with colleagues is an option that strengthens the sense of community. For in-house events and meetings, a conference hotel is definitely a good choice.

But it does not necessarily have to be a conference hotel. Other locations are also ideal for meetings of all kinds. For very large corporate events, convention and meeting centers are excellent. They are much larger than the meeting rooms in hotels and can easily accommodate several hundred people. The range of services offered here is also correspondingly well developed. Different types of meeting rooms are offered in such centers, as well as accommodation for the participants of the congress.
If it is not a very formal event, business meetings can certainly be held in other locations. If a family setting is desired and you are planning an in-house event, breweries or wineries are a good option. Here you can combine the useful with the pleasant and treat your employees to a wine tasting. Well-known and exquisite restaurants are also suitable for a company event for exactly this reason. If you want to be a bit more relaxed, simply book a bar or a club. This event location is quite suitable for small companies in which the individual employees know each other well. Do you have only a small budget for your next event? Then simply ask at the nearest civic or community center. Here you can rent various rooms for little money, which are well suited for a variety of events.
Last but not least: Theaters, museums and art galleries are also suitable for corporate events. Why not combine your meeting with a visit to the latest play, vernissage or art exhibition?
Popular and great conference locations worldwide: These are the top destinations!
Not only private trips deserve extraordinary destinations. Stand out from the crowd and offer your employees and business partners incomparable locations for your next business trip.
One of the top destinations for a business trip is Las Vegas. The place is not only known for its casinos; there are also hotels and convention centers galore for every size. Not to forget, of course, the lively nightlife and incomparable shows that will remain in the memory of the congress participants for a long time. The same goes for the capital of France, Paris. Here, too, there are numerous event venues. But culture is not neglected in Paris either. Starting with the Eiffel Tower as the landmark of Paris to the most famous museum Louvre to the artist center Montmartre. There's never a dull moment in Paris and plenty to discover after your meetings.
Are you ready to take on a longer approach? Then the top two destinations for a convention are Singapore and Dubai. Both offer ultra-modern meeting venues paired with luxurious hotels and unique cultural highlights. Would you like to experience unparalleled gastronomy or relax on the beach after your meetings? Then Sydney is the ideal destination for your next convention. If you prefer to stay close by, Berlin is probably Germany's top destination for a congress or similar event. Countless conference centers and hotels offer plenty of choice, and the cultural landscape is also well worth checking out. A sightseeing tour to the Brandenburg Gate as well as a visit to one of the most famous museums of the German capital should definitely be on the agenda of a congress in Berlin.
Which of the aforementioned destinations you choose depends, of course, largely on the nature and purpose of your business trip. Your personal needs and demands also play a role. For orientation on business conferences, ask yourself essential questions before choosing the appropriate location. For example, is the event location easy to reach and are there sufficient overnight accommodations available for all participants? Furthermore, are there sufficient meeting rooms and is catering provided? The issue of security should also play a role. So find out all the details about the destination before booking to avoid any nasty surprises.
Finding the right tour operator
Have you decided on a destination for your business event? Then you still need to find the right organizer. Not only the price plays a role. Choose the room size according to the number of congress participants. The shape of the room actually plays a role as well. While for official business meetings, the so-called block table is chosen, the carrée shape is the first choice for large group meetings. If you choose U-shaped seating, you can encourage participants to engage in discussion. So make sure that the seating can be adapted to your needs accordingly.
Small tip: Use various Internet comparison sites to find the right location. Here you can apply specific filters and see at first glance whether the desired venue is still available on your desired date. In addition, you will find not only hotels and convention centers, but also unusual event ideas such as the star kitchen or the event ship. Once you have found a suitable location, you can book it immediately and bindingly, including in-house catering.
