A city of contrasts, Salzburg combines its ancient past with contemporary architecture. Its Mozart museums contrast with the Red Bull exhibition and dining experience to the south of the city, whilst its genteel pedestrian zones are a far cry from the adventure sports on the water and mountains at the fringes of the city.

With a river sweeping through the heart of the city, Salzburg has riverside walkways beneath its historic, hill-top fortifications. The Old Town of Salzburg is gushing with history and cultural pomp and the city extends outward through affluent suburbs towards the mountainous Alps - Salzburg scenery is jaw-dropping.

Salzburg is an immaculate city with superb infrastructure and an international airport just 6 miles from the centre. The city is compact with wonderful riverside promenades connecting districts. There are a number of superb meeting event venues from intimate seminar rooms to extensive conference facilities in & around Salzburg.

The regional surrounding Salzburg is a paradise for incentive events with wonderful nature offering a wide range of superb event activities. Sailing, white-water rafting, canyoning, paragliding, mountain biking, and cycling are just some of the event activity options in Salzburg.

On the lakes of the Salzkammergut region, just east of Salzburg, groups can enjoy stand up paddling, kayaking and sailing, whilst over the lakes, tandem paragliding is a wonderful event activity. This lake region is also heavily featured in the Sound of Music and music tours cross this region.

Salzburg is steeped in history and culture and the city boasts some of the finest cultural experiences in the region. Music tours centre around Mozart but his legacy is alive in the concert halls and venues of Salzburg Old Town. Museums and art galleries can also be found amongst the Old Town of Salzburg.

Taking in both the traditional and contemporary, food tours in the city are a great way for groups to experience the culinary riches of the region. Austrian wines from the east of the country are a great accompaniment to the foods. City cycling tours are another popular event activity.

SALZBURG DINING

Austrian food is heavily influenced by its proximity to the southern German province of Bavaria – meats, krauts and soups hold sway. And for group and gala dinners the Stiegel Brewery offers fantastic dining experiences for large groups with a traditional fayre of kraut, potatoes and meat dishes, seasonal beers, accompanied by live music and regional dancing.

The beer halls create a wonderful and truly authentic Austrian atmosphere. The Augustiner Braustuebl is an alternative beer hall experience with hearty food and domed room atmosphere. Both beer halls are great venues for group and team events.

Austrian gastronomy is so much more than sauerkraut, dumplings and pork and for corporate meeting and incentive event groups there are some excellent modern culinary experiences to enjoy. Ikarus at the Red Bull exhibition Hangar 7 hosts group and corporate events, serving contemporary, fusion cuisine, crafted by a rotating team of award-winning chefs.

More traditional, high-end restaurants in Salzburg include the Restaurant Esszimmer and the Restaurant Brunnauer.
