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 new Festhalle – is top-notch. Everything is absolutely spot on.”

What our customers say


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 perfectly. But sometimes the team steps into the spotlight. At Assistants’ Day 2025 in Zurich, together with Bernexpo, Swissôtel Kursaal Bern, Novotel Bern, Zentrum Paul Klee and Casino Bern, it presented our city and region. Around 950 visitors (primarily assistants) were enthusiastic about the business destination of Bern. This appearance not only offers a look behind the scenes, but also provides valuable references and testimonials confirming Bern as a first-class business and event destination.


Ambassador programme

“Do good and talk about it” is a saying we take literally. The business destination of Bern has so much to offer. For this reason, the Ambassador programme was launched. Key figures from politics, business, medicine and education represent Bern. Are you a decision-maker yourself, or do you know someone who would be suitable for the programme? Please get in touch with us and become a Bern Ambassador.
