Out-of-the-ordinary venues for unique events in Vienna
Modern Loft - Historic Complex
Ariana - Palais Coburg
An event location with that all-important wow factor: one of a kind, sustainable and featuring premium acoustics as well as all the latest sound equipment – the new meeting venue Ariana has the full spectrum covered. Or is historic charm what you are looking for? Embedded in the remains of a late medieval fortification dating back to the 16th century, the venerable Palais Coburg is the perfect stage for presentations, conferences and gala events thanks to its unique ambience.
Opulence - Transparency
Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna - Belvedere 21
The grandeur of the opulent marble grand staircase in the entrance hall of the Kunsthistorisches Museum (or KHM for short) creates a truly unforgettable first impression. The perfect setting for exclusive tours and events. But anyone who is still looking for something with a museum feel but a little less opulence would be well advised to check out Belvedere 21. The light-filled contemporary art display rooms lend themselves perfectly to lectures and panel discussions, as well as cocktail receptions in a laid-back environment.
Up Top - Down Below
MQ Libelle - Schlumberger Cellars
Vienna's most attractive "art terrace" is located high above ground level, on the roof of the Leopold Museum: the MQ Libelle offers spectacular views of the historic old town, transforming any meeting into a memorable experience. Meanwhile, the Schlumberger Cellars provide an in-depth insight into the world of premium sparkling wine. The illuminated vaulted ceiling and the elegant arched cellar snug come together to create a unique atmosphere. The ideal place for tasteful events of all kinds and effervescent socials!
Contemporary Historic - Historic Finery
Palais Wertheim - Palais Palffy
Behind the historic facade of Palais Wertheim on Schwarzenbergplatz you will not only find futuristic design elements contrasted with the charm of days gone by, but also technical equipment for events of all kinds. No less historic are the venerable old walls of Palais Palffy where exclusive meetings can be staged in style in a time-honored ambience.
Baroque - Brick
Orangerie Schönbrunn - METAStadt
The orangery in the grounds of Schönbrunn Palace – the largest Baroque orangery building after the one at Versailles – was used to host court celebrations from the outset. And that proud tradition continues to this day, with the space available for events of all stripes. METAStadt, by contrast, is all about brick aesthetic and factory chic rather than Baroque opulence. The six different zones and halls of the venue make it a true all-rounder – hosting everything from open-air concerts to gala dinners.
Future Historic - Old School Pomp
Labstelle - Gerstner Salons Privés
Meetings, celebrations, dances – the historic glass roof of the futuristic-looking domed hall at Labstelle provides the perfect backdrop for private events and corporate meetings. Talking of backdrops: Gerstner Salons Privés creates a dazzling stage for receptions, banquets, gala dinners and meetings with its gilt wood paneling, impressive ceiling paintings and striking marble columns.
Award Winning - Unique
Campus WU - Austrian National Library
Right in the heart of the newly constructed Vienna University of Economics and Business campus and surrounded by the other architectural highlights of the Viertel Zwei quarter, an innovative and multi-award-winning 1,850m² event space awaits organizers. By contrast, Baroque design and modern purism are the hallmarks of the Austrian National Library, where different eras and styles give that certain special something to events of all types.
Flying High - View From The Top
Haus des Meeres Lighthouse10 - Weitsicht Cobenzl
Viewed from up on high, Vienna reveals its rich diversity: there are beautiful views to be had from Lighthouse10 on the 10th floor of the House of the Sea, which also provides a great space for presentations, product launches, meetings, seminars and workshops. Weitschicht Cobenzl is another place that offers fantastic views: high above Vienna's rooftops, the new event venue – due to open in fall 2022 – promises to be the perfect location for staging inspiring events, conferences and celebrations.
Cinematic - Musical
Gartenbaukino - Wiener Konzerthaus
The Gartenbaukino cinema and its foyer – a monument to 1960s interior design – provides a setting for events worthy of Hollywood. The impressive 736-seater auditorium is ideally suited for lectures, presentations and exclusive film screenings. And anyone who prefers a more musical setting will be in their element at the Konzerthaus. In addition to four differently-sized concert halls, the venue has a range of spacious foyers as well as various anterooms, dressing rooms and practice rooms, all of which can be used for events.
