Nuremberg, 2 May 2024 – The top seven German congress and conference destinations belonging to the marketing collaboration alliance “SevenCenters of Germany” exemplify Germany’s world-leading role in Europe and the world. These seven locations offer modern, multifunctional congress centres with a direct connection to an exhibition centre, excellent infrastructure with very good transport connections, and a proven service orientation. Ideal conditions for national and international congresses, successful meetings, association meetings, company events, and mega events of all kinds. “SevenCenters embodies the highest quality standards of the leading German congress locations, which we have guaranteed for many years and which, together with our industry expertise, we very much want to contribute to the further development of Germany as a place to hold congresses. These congress centres work together as equal partners with the successful colleagues of SevenCenters”, said Jan Gerrit Ebener, Head of Guest Events & Congresses, speaking for the NürnbergConvention Center.

The first big event for the new SevenCenters line-up will be the IMEX, to be held in Frankfurt from 14 to 16 May. The alliance will come together next in the summer in Nuremberg to discuss platforms for sharing experiences and ideas.
