An amazing history is meeting a new culture in today’s Baden-Baden. The town is getting younger and attracting more and more international guests – including to the Kurhaus Baden-Baden. This venue, which is brimming with history, is exactly where Baden-Baden Events GmbH holds its events. It is the harmonious symbiosis of architecture, style, ambience and atmosphere that makes this Baden-Baden landmark so unique. The Kurhaus0 is the gleaming jewel in the centre of the town and has been the scene of conferences, meetings, company and media events and glamorous gala happenings for years innumerable.

Fitted with the latest technology and individual lighting concepts, each one of the eight event rooms in total offers a fantastic location for an event. The outdoor grounds are a treat during the summer, with a picturesque covered walk between the "Trinkhalle", the "Kurgarten" and the open-air-stage. Time and again, they act as the stage for our open-air events where a wonderful, almost Mediterranean atmosphere unfolds.
The ground floor of the Kurhaus is home to the most tradition-filled and well-known gaming halls in Germany, with its palatial and splendid rooms. Together they form the finest location to enjoy the adventure of a refined gamble, being the place in Baden-Baden where the night glitters and shines.
