My event at the Ars Electronica Center
The Ars Electronica Center is widely known for its interactive Deep Space 8K and its exhibitions, which – full of technology, creativity and innovation – keep astonished visitors looking to the future. What far fewer people know: The Ars Electronica Center not only stands out as a museum of the future, but is also one of the most innovative event locations in Linz, Austria.
Whether seminar room or event location for conferences, symposia or any other private or business occasion – kick-off meeting, business brunch, seminar, workshop, lecture, conference, gala dinner, meeting or customer event, birthday party or wedding, up to the classic meeting and product presentation – in the large and small premises on the banks of the Danube in Upper Austria many things have already been celebrated, organized and presented.
Not only the physical rooms of the Ars Electronica Center are available to our guests for conferences, events and functions, but also cyberspace. When organizing your event, the Ars Electronica event team will assist you in all phases of planning and implementation.
