“Our ongoing activations in India through Indiva Marketing certainly borne fruit and Frankfurt has witnessed a steady growth and we hope to reach pre-pandemic numbers soon. The city will celebrate exciting events and we look forward to welcoming more Indians to enjoy our festivities: the Apple Wine Fest from Aug 12-21, the Museum Embankment Festival from August 26-28, the Autumn Fair Dippemess from September 9-18 and the most iconic Christmas market from November 21-December” says Ms. Leona Flach, Manager of Tourism Marketing.
Frankfurt’s central location in Europe and the metropolitan region of Frankfurt Rhein Main makes it a perfect, easily accessible MICE destination. The city’s most modern and largest, the Congress Center Messe Frankfurt, offers 400,000 sqm of event space in eleven different halls and over 59,500 sqm of outdoor exhibition space. An exciting development is the re-opening of Hall 5 in Spring 2023 with a capacity of upto 16,500. Smaller events can be hosted at the highest venue in Frankfurt – at Fifty Heights. For a truly historical touch, enjoy an array of mediaeval buildings in the vineyards at the monastery Kloster Eberbach.
Large convention hotels are Sheraton Frankfurt Airport with over 800 rooms, or Melia and Frankfurt Marriott close to the fair ground. And to combine work, play and pleasure in an outdoor setting amidst nature, Bold Campus in the Taunus, 20 minutes from Frankfurt is a perfect choice, complete with fitness and wellness options.
Frankfurt offers some fun and unique experiences on water, land or air for groups including families and kids. For a Main river experience, charter a boat from the Primus Linie fleet, or reserve the Apple Wine Express and choose your route for your party. If you love flying on top of the clouds and dreamed of flying your own aircraft, this is a do-not-miss group activity. You can choose to fly between Airbus A320, a Boeing B737, a Cessna C172, an F-16, or a Bell UH-1 helicopter at the Flight Simulator Frankfurt.
After busy meetings enjoy the diverse nightlife from fancy wine bars to jazz dens to techno clubs. Or Tigerpalast – a throwback to the golden age of cabaret, with a snazzy blend of live music, dance, comedy, mime, magic, acrobats and animal acts in a dinner-theater setting.
