Seminar room hire: the plenary hall with flexible seating

If you are looking to hire a seminar space in Bern for large groups, our plenary hall offers up to 128 places in classroom seating or up to 380 in theatre seating. It is designed to meet the requirements of professional conferences, congresses and training formats.

The stage, with two high-resolution 4K LED walls, forms the room’s centrepiece. The displays can show content independently, with up to three languages presented at once.

Smaller seminar rooms on the lower ground floor: group work in the workshop area

In our experience, many seminar formats combine plenary sessions with smaller working groups. Eventforum Bern offers modular lower-ground workshop rooms that can be configured flexibly and feature Samsung 65" screens.

  • Group work

    Divide participants into working groups that meet in parallel on the lower ground floor, while the ground-floor hall remains ready for plenary sessions. Sliding partitions divide the rooms to suit groups of different sizes.

  • Parallel sessions

    Congresses and larger seminars benefit from the option of offering several breakout sessions at once. The workshop rooms allow parallel programme activities at one location, without guests needing to leave the building.

  • Training and development

    For training formats requiring a quiet working atmosphere, the lower-ground rooms provide separation from the main programme. Technical facilities and flexible seating can be tailored to each format.

Catering for your seminar day in Bern: professionally provided

Good catering keeps a seminar day moving. Eventforum Bern coordinates it through longstanding partners, principally ZFV, whose premises are directly beside the building. Catering can vary with the length of the seminar. Below is an initial idea of what the food could look like when you hire a seminar space with us.

  • Start the seminar day well

    Many participants arrive directly from the station or by car. Coffee and a light breakfast in the foyer before the programme begins give them time to settle in and make those first conversations with other guests easier.

  • Make the most of lunch

    A one-hour lunch break barely leaves enough time to visit a restaurant and return on schedule. In Eventforum Bern’s foyer, the buffet is already set out as the plenary hall empties, coordinated by our catering partner ZFV.

  • An evening bite to finish

    For events ending with a drinks reception
    or an evening snack, we plan the right concept with you. We then coordinate the setup with our catering partners to suit your guest numbers.
