Frequently Asked Questions about MICE in Vienna
What is the typical lead time for a Vienna conference?
For large-scale international congresses (500+ delegates), we recommend a lead time of 12 to 18 months. Vienna is a high-demand hub for medical and scientific associations. For corporate meetings under 50 people, 3 to 4 months is often sufficient, provided you avoid the peak “Ball Season” (January/February).
Do you provide bilingual staff for international MICE groups?
Absolutely. As a German-based company operating in a polyglot hub, we provide a roster of professional, multilingual hostesses, guides, and technical coordinators. Our team is fluent in English and German, with additional support available in French, Spanish, and Italian to ensure every delegate feels at home.
Can we achieve "Green Meeting" status for a palace event?
Yes. Many of Vienna’s historic landmarks, including the Hofburg, are fully equipped and certified to host “Green Meetings.” We handle the entire audit process for you, ensuring that even a gala in a 13th-century palace meets modern 2026 sustainability standards.
