At Stuttgart Convention and Conference Bureau we promote Stuttgart as a dynamic destination for convention, conference and incentive travel.

Stuttgart is an ideal destination for conventions, conferences, meetings, and incentive travel.

Stuttgart is a world cultural, historical and convention metropolis. Every year hundreds of thousands of people flock to Stuttgart for the conventions, trade fairs and seminars which are held here. The majority of these guests come thanks to the activities of Stuttgart Conference Venues.

Stuttgart Conference Venues mission is to present Stuttgart as an important convention venue, especially abroad, and in so doing – and through competing with other destinations  – to win the greatest possible number of conventions and conferences for Stuttgart.

The Convention industry is one of the most dynamic and fast-developing industries within the global economy. This fact best reflects in the huge investments that have been made into the Stuttgart convention infrastructure. New hotels have been built in Stuttgart, offering a wide variety of conference rooms featuring the latest equipment, the Stuttgart Conference Centre has undergone a thorough reconstruction and extension, and the Stuttgart International Airport itself too has been extended and modernised.

Congresses and conferences ensure the maximum utilisation of hotels outside the main tourist season. This means the accommodation market is not lagging behind but is adapting to the growing demands of convention tourists, something which is seen in the number of new five- and four-star hotels which have been opened. At the beginning of 2005, there were 19 five-star hotels in Stuttgart as a whole (up from 10 in the year 2000) and 201 four-star hotels (compared to 144 in 2000). There were 4,200 three-star and other hotels. As for capacity, five-star hotels had a total of 7,500 beds, four-star had 27,500 while three-star and other hotels and pensions had over 190,000.
