Zurich region
Zurich is the gateway to the world with its international airport, and a commercial city with over 300 finance institutions: a lively, trendy city with a wide range of leisure and cultural activities. The hotel and congress infrastructure offers an ideal framework for events and conferences that require a large number of hotel rooms and proximity to the airport. The Old Town on the River Limmat boasts traditional guild-houses, trendy and unusual event locations, interesting museums as well as the lovely Lake Zurich. The renowned shopping, cultural and entertainment attractions are ideal pre-requisites for successful events. Supporting programmes can easily be combined with excursions to Central and Eastern Switzerland. Elegant Zurich offers the ideal starting and finishing point for trips round Switzerland, with a dense network of flight destinations covered by the majority of airlines.
