Tasks of the Berlin Convention Office

We bring people, ideas and partners together. Whether it's an international congress, a conference, a corporate event or a hybrid meeting: we support your event planning with solid expertise and a reliable network – from the initial idea through to realization. We assist in finding the right venue, offer advice on sustainable event concepts, and present funding options via the Berlin Congress Fund for sustainable meetings

Event acquisition

The Berlin Convention Office team at visitBerlin analyses relevant markets, monitors trends in the MICE industry and applies insights to targeted initiatives, particularly in the life sciences, technology and digital sectors. We identify events that align with Berlin’s profile – thematically, structurally and economically. This careful selection forms the basis for professional bids for major national and international events.

Support in event planning

We offer personalised initial consultations, help you find suitable venues including availability checks, and support you during site inspections. We also suggest incentives, transfers and event suppliers for catering, technology and exhibition stand construction. For your event communication, we provide both digital and printed information materials on Berlin. Our hotel booking tool can also be easily integrated into your event website – for a seamless booking experience.

Connecting with venues and partners

Take advantage of our Berlin network: we’ll connect you not only with suitable venues but also with experienced partners such as technical providers, caterers, event agencies, limousine services and photographers.

With engaging content, we help you boost reach and present your event professionally – both nationally and internationally. 

Our mission: Strengthening your event and the meeting destination Berlin

Berlin ranks among the world’s leading meeting destinations. Why?

We showcase these strengths and bring events to Berlin that inspire people, connect knowledge and change perspectives.
