Bern as a business destination has everything you could need for events, meetings, conventions, and incentive travel. And the Bern Convention Bureau is happy to support you in the planning and realisation of your event with experience and expertise. The testimonials of our customers speak for themselves.

Two people talking at a trade fair: the woman shows something on her smartphone, the man listens attentively. The atmosphere is professional, interested and open to dialogue.
“The distances are short, the infrastructure – especially the Neue Festhalle – is top-notch. It’s great.”
Martin Spahr, CMO Switzerland Cheese Marketing, on hosting the World Cheese Awards in Bern

What our customers say

The picture shows a huge crowd of people in red and white dresses marching across the Nydegg Bridge in Bern. The atmosphere is festive, united and full of energy - presumably a sporting or bank holidays event.

Bern Convention Bureau in action

The Bern Convention Bureau is usually active behind the scenes, organising, connecting and supporting to ensure that events and trade fairs in Bern run smoothly. But every now and then, the team steps into the spotlight. At the Assistants’ Day 2025 in Zurich, it presented and represented our city and region together with Bernexpo, Swissôtel Kursaal Bern, Novotel Bern, the Zentrum Paul Klee and Casino Bern. The almost 1,000 visitors, most of them assistants, were impressed with the business destination Bern. This appearance of the Bern Convention Bureau not only offered a glimpse behind its scenes but also provided valuable references and testimonials confirming Bern as a first-class business and event destination.

Our Ambassador Programme

“Do good and talk about it” is a saying we take seriously. After all, the business destination Bern has so much to offer. That is why the Ambassador Programme was launched, with key figures from politics, business, medicine and education to represent Bern. Do you consider yourself a decision-maker, or do you know someone who would be perfect for the programme? Get in touch with us and become a Bern Ambassador.
