INTRODUCTION: THE PROVINCE<br />
Festivals of world renown, the surprisingly vivid<br />
cultural scene, and internationally successful<br />
businesses not only set standards but also demand<br />
standards that are a good bit above average.<br />
<strong>Vorarlberg</strong> knows how to present itself with the<br />
right combination of precision and creative ideas.<br />
Also speaking for <strong>Vorarlberg</strong> as a conference location is:<br />
Its central location in the four-country-corner between Austria,<br />
Switzerland, Germany and the Principality of Liechtenstein.<br />
Its good accessibility by car, railway and airplane. The nearest<br />
airport with international connections is the Bodensee-Airport<br />
Friedrichshafen, only a half hour drive from Bregenz. The airports<br />
Zurich and Munich are approx. 1.5 hours away by car, the<br />
regional airport St. Gallen-Altenrhein is just half an hour away.<br />
The high standards of the hotel trade and gastronomy. With<br />
approximately 160 5 - and 4-star hotels as well as 310 3-star<br />
establishments the region boasts some 23,000 beds.<br />
Numerous family-run hotels offer conference and seminar<br />
rooms. Large congresses are coordinated in close co-operation<br />
with hotels in nearby Germany and in Switzerland.<br />
<strong>Vorarlberg</strong>’s cuisine is considered among the best in all of<br />
Austria: 49 restaurants have been toque-awarded by the<br />
gourmet guide Gault Millau. The province boasts numerous<br />
traditional inns as well.<br />
www.vorarlberg.cc<br />
The scenic variety on a small area, with lakes, gorges, mountains,<br />
lively towns and cosy villages.<br />
The innumerable possibilities for social programmes in the<br />
summer and winter – skiing in the world-famous skiing areas<br />
at the Arlberg or the Montafon, hiking with a traditional<br />
round of "Kässpätzle" (cheese dumplings), canyoning, rafting,<br />
cruises on Lake Constance, exploring the modern architecture<br />
of <strong>Vorarlberg</strong> are but a few of the possibilities.<br />
The cultural programme: <strong>Vorarlberg</strong> is setting for numerous<br />
events all year round, for example the Bregenz Spring Dance<br />
Festival (March to May), the Feldkirch Festival (June), the<br />
Bregenz Festival (July/August) or the Schubertiade Hohenems<br />
(Winter) and Schwarzenberg (July, August/September).
CONFERENCE AND CONVENTION LOCATIONS<br />
EXEMPLARY<br />
When Mariss Jansons conducts in the Festspielhaus<br />
Bregenz, when Philip Arlaud directs a play at<br />
the Montforthaus in Feldkirch, when plays are<br />
staged in the Kulturhaus Dornbirn and the Haus<br />
der Messe in Dornbirn transforms into an international<br />
meeting point, then greatest precision is in<br />
demand-- from the first to the last second.<br />
Curtains up!<br />
There are many individual factors that contribute to the success<br />
of conferences and meetings. If one lists them, one would<br />
quickly arrive at terms used in the theatre scene as well. It is<br />
the job of the dramaturgy to ensure that the arc of suspense<br />
and highlights are well thought out and well placed. The production<br />
must be consistent, must suit the occasion, and must<br />
give the respective requests the right priorities. What a difference<br />
in atmosphere alone the seating arrangement, lighting,<br />
or acoustics can make!<br />
Business meets culture<br />
How practical to be able to rely on the know-how of professional<br />
partners, such as the Messe Dornbirn and the three<br />
congress centres in <strong>Vorarlberg</strong>, which are also cultural<br />
centres. The teams look back on years of experience in not only<br />
fulfilling the precise requirements of conference and meeting<br />
organizers – but also exceeding them. They are also specializ-<br />
01<br />
ed in fulfilling the various requests and needs of conductors,<br />
orchestras, directors and artists from all branches and from<br />
all over the world. And in order to fulfill these tasks a high<br />
measure of flexibility, a wealth of ideas and a joy in imaginative<br />
creation is needed. And on occasions where regular live<br />
broadcasts in radio and television take place, state-of-the-art<br />
technical facilities are a matter of course.<br />
Creative conventions<br />
In this sense the three <strong>Vorarlberg</strong> congress houses have long<br />
been practicing what has increasingly been gaining significance<br />
under the term "creative industries". Here the economy<br />
profits from the know-how of the culture and creative<br />
industry – and vice versa, of course. The <strong>Vorarlberg</strong> congress<br />
houses have hence developed their own discipline – "Creative<br />
<strong>Convention</strong>s" so to speak.<br />

The Magic of Performance<br />
Since its renovation in 2006 the Festspielhaus<br />
boasts a new, extraordinary design with optimised<br />
technology and modern furnishings. The house is a<br />
successful composition of glass, steel, wood and<br />
concrete. The light, glass entrance area and the<br />
strict, black outer façade of the workshop stage<br />
complement each other perfectly.<br />
The building is functional and aesthetic inside and<br />
out. Well thought-out presentation areas place<br />
theatre performances of all kinds in the best light.<br />
Each room has a new design. Up to 2150 persons can<br />
be accommodated. The festival hall is supported by<br />
a team that loves and celebrates the high art of stage<br />
production. In 2004 it was awarded the APEX-Award<br />
by the AIPC – International Association of Congress<br />
Centres as one of the three best congress centres of<br />
the world.

Convenient location:<br />
The Montforthaus lies in the heart of the medieval<br />
city center of Feldkirch with its paved lanes and<br />
arcades. The house has been ISO-certified since<br />
1996, and captivates with its ability to transform.<br />
The rooms can accommodate up to 1,100 persons.<br />
There is hardly an idea that the team would not<br />
know how to carry out: Balls, concerts of all styles,<br />
presentations, fairs and conferences. And time and<br />
again high culture: The Feldkirch Festival has been<br />
hosted in the Montforthaus since 2001. The atmosphere?<br />
A successful combination of dignified classics<br />
and modern precision.

vibrant. A place of diverse meetings. Like the Kulturhaus<br />
– conveniently located, surrounded by green and yet very<br />
central at the outskirts of the city center.<br />
The innovative team stages productions at "its" Kulturhaus<br />
all year round, setting impulses, effects, composing<br />
poetic programs, and transforming the rooms, which can<br />

Hub for Business and Society<br />
The Messe Dornbirn and its team are the<br />
epitome of pleasure and success. The new “Haus<br />
der Messe” is a unique meeting point in the fourcountry<br />
corner. Whether large-scale congresses<br />
with accompanying exhibitions, concerts, festivities,<br />
company presentations or TV broadcasts,<br />
the new business card of the trade fair town<br />
Dornbirn is extremely diverse.<br />
The modern Messe Stadion – as does the “Haus<br />
der Messe“ – boasts outstanding architecture<br />
and the mega tribune offers the best view of the<br />
area.<br />
The fair themes are varied and range from<br />
contemporary art (“art bodensee“) to top-notch<br />
technology (“intertech“) to religious events<br />
(GLORIA), care and rehabilitation (Inter-Cura)<br />
and occupational health and safety (PREVENTA).<br />
The private trade fair association comprises a<br />
total of 17 halls (some 34,000 square metres)<br />
and a new open-air area.
CONFERENCE AND EVENT LOCATIONS<br />
ABOVE ALL PROFESSIONAL<br />
Here one can conference and rely on the fact that<br />
everything will go as planned. Whether festive<br />
dinners, lively celebrations, charming concerts,<br />
travels in time in historical flair or cruises on Lake<br />
Constance – you will find the perfect location for<br />
every event and occasion.<br />
Playful and elegant<br />
Wining and dining well is part of the package. And <strong>Vorarlberg</strong><br />
can boast one or the other specialty in that department: fresh<br />
fish from Lake Constance, delicious cheese, fine liquors, even<br />
wine. Gastronomes and localities have also specialised in<br />
organizing culinary events, from elegant dinners in the Casino<br />
Bregenz to hearty knights’ meals and entertaining knights’<br />
games at the Hohenems Castle. The ambiance in the Otten<br />
Gravour in Hohenems, a former industrial hall, is extraordinary.<br />
Especially exquisite indulgence programs are organised by the<br />
Deuring-Schlössle in Bregenz. The restaurant is among the<br />
best in all of Austria.<br />
Music and dance<br />
The Casino in Bregenz on the banks of Lake Constance, the<br />
modern event hall of the Otten Gravour in Hohenems and the<br />
Angelika Hoffmann Centre in Schwarzenberg, one of the best<br />
concert halls in Europe, are ideal for a combination of conferences<br />
with presentations, shows, large festivals or concerts.<br />
02<br />
Mountain or lake?<br />
Conferencing on Lake Constance? That, too, is possible. In an<br />
especially elegant setting: On the historical paddle steamer<br />
Hohentwiel, where one can enjoy meetings on magical cruises,<br />
accompanied by delicious menus, entertaining Dixie music,<br />
jazz or classical tunes. The Angelika Kauffmann Centre in<br />
Schwarzenberg in the Bregenzerwald Forest is surrounding by<br />
breathtaking mountain scenery. The view from the centre is of<br />
the meadows and the beautiful and majestic mountains.<br />
During the Schubertiade in Schwarzenberg the world’s best<br />
lied singers and chamber music ensembles come together<br />
every year.<br />

Welcome on board the royal Württemberg steam ship<br />
"Hohentwiel"!<br />
Built by Escher Wyss & Cie., the "Hohentwiel" was put into<br />
operation in 1913. The elegant ship attracted just as much<br />
attention as the modern steam engine, which made the<br />
"Hohentwiel" the fastest ship on Lake Constance.<br />
Because of its luxurious furnishings the ship was used for<br />
representation journeys of the royal house of Württemberg.<br />
After nearly 30 years in retirement, it was laboriously repaired<br />
true to the original from 1986-1990 and has been in operation<br />
again since May 1990. Today the "Hohentwiel" shows its old<br />
spirit: as the best restored steam ship in Europe, as trade<br />
literature writes.<br />
Experience a journey on the "Hohentwiel" in the classical<br />
style. Enjoy maritime flair on deck, the distinguished elegance<br />
in the parlors and the fascination of the powerful steam<br />

INCENTIVE HOTELS<br />
ABOVE ALL CREATIVE<br />
A bed alone does not constitute a conference.<br />
Wouldn’t it be practical if the hosts also know<br />
how to organise entertaining, challenging and<br />
informative programmes? The ideas know no<br />
bounds.<br />
04<br />
Sports activities<br />
There is hardly a sport that cannot be practiced in <strong>Vorarlberg</strong>.<br />
The “classics” include hiking, cycling and in winter of course<br />
skiing. In addition, there are many possibilities for exploring<br />
nature between Lake Constance and the mountains such as<br />
rowing and sailing, climbing and abseiling, touring through<br />
gorges and caves, or numerous activities in the snow.<br />
The distances are short – the outdoor centre of <strong>Vorarlberg</strong><br />
practically begins at your hotel’s doorstep. So sports activities<br />
can be easily combined in your conference programme even<br />
when there is only little time available.<br />
Culturally inspired<br />
Want to follow the trails of <strong>Vorarlberg</strong>’s modern architecture?<br />
Discover what life was like in the year dot at traditional huts?<br />
Find inspiration at exhibitions, concerts or theatre performances?<br />
Whatever the request, the incentive hotel hosts will<br />
organise the suitable programme.<br />

SOCIAL AND INCENTIVE PROGRAMMES<br />
OUTSTANDING!<br />
Trudge through gorges and climb up mountains.<br />
But if you prefer the cosier variant, use the cable<br />
railways instead. Sample <strong>Vorarlberg</strong>’s delicacies<br />
and watch how they are created. On the following<br />
pages you will find a number of ideas and organisers<br />
of social programmes.<br />
Deep Gorges<br />
It may sound easy but it has astounding effects – team building<br />
in nature helps you gain new impressions. You will be<br />
accompanied by well trained experts while abseiling off rugged<br />
cliffs or canyoning through deep gorges, that enchant you with<br />
their own romantic charm, or while rafting on the Bregenz<br />
River, that is best explored by boat.<br />
Mountains with the best views<br />
When there is limited time left or if you prefer cosier trails, then<br />
take the cable railway up the mountain. For example, the<br />
Pfänder railway takes you from Bregenz to the 1,064 m high<br />
lookout mountain Pfänder in just a few minutes. From the top<br />
you can enjoy a wonderful panoramic view of Lake Constance<br />
and the mountains. The cable railway itself can also be used<br />
for unusual events: from wine degustations to civil wedding<br />
ceremonies, everything is possible.<br />

Tasteful <strong>Vorarlberg</strong><br />
The Bentele Brothers’ programmes give interested guests a<br />
taste of <strong>Vorarlberg</strong>. At their farm in the Bregenzerwald Forest<br />
there are numerous treats to be sampled – typical Bregenzerwald<br />
cheese, honey, bacon, fine liquors ad sweet pralines. In<br />
cooperation with partners from the region they also organise<br />
dairy courses, culinary journeys, hiking tours, rides with the<br />
nostalgic railway and much more.<br />
