Congress Destination FRANKFURT AM MAIN
Frankfurt am Main, conveniently situated in the heart of Germany, is one of the world’s busiest traffic and transport hubs. Its airport ranks amongst the largest in Europe and is only 11 minutes from the city centre by train. Known as the "Gateway to Europe“, Frankfurt is the ideal destination for international congresses requiring highest possible standards.
More than 60,000 conferences and congresses are held in Frankfurt every year, nearly a quarter ofwhich are internationally oriented. Not surprising, really, with Frankfurt offering its guests such a variety of congress venues and fringe programme opportunities. Frankfurt has a wide range of modern conference facilities to choose from, headed by the multifunctional congress facilities of Messe Frankfurt, the city’s famous fair and exhibition centre. Frankfurt’s hotel industry is equally extensive, with more than 35,000 beds available in accommodation establishments of every category. Better still, they are located throughout the entire city and its environs while being easily accessible by all means of transport.
A further advantage is the close proximity of Frankfurt’s downtown locations. It takes as little as half an hour to traverse the city centre on foot. More than 7,000 hotel rooms are available within a one-mile radius of the Congress Center Messe Frankfurt and the Frankfurt fairgrounds.
The Main metropolis also features an excellent selection of unusual event venues, a rich cultural life and scenic surroundings. The greater Frankfurt Rhine-Main region has plenty of fringe programme possibilities on offer as well. How about a theatrical showing of Swan Lake? Or do you prefer experimental dance theatre? Philharmonic sounds or hard rock, perhaps? What about art extraordinaire at the Städel Museum or international variety theatre in the backstreets of Frankfurt? Or how about team-building and outdoor activities? One thing is certain, the cultural diversity of Frankfurt Rhine-Main has something for every taste. Four major opera houses, 15 theatres and over 100 museums combine to offer your event participants entertainment of the highest order.
