Criminally overlooked, Luxembourg has the potential to become a household name among event organisers in the meetings industry. When a global association such as MPI decides on Luxembourg for its European MPI EMEC Conference, it is a sign the city is on the up. International delegates took over the city to meet and change the world, as MPI’s slogan goes. I want to thank Federico Toja for the kind invitation and congratulate Bo Krüger for showing once more that no matter the mystery, we can always solve it with creative solutions and thinking.
Here are my impressions:
Luxembourg is a Central European outpost where electric buses and trams whiz by with timeliness akin to Japanese supertrains. The interplay of modernist architecture – vast glass surfaces, impressive slabs of iron and steel – and the gothic black-tiled roofs signal that this is both a city of past and present. The city’s retro, if funky, restaurants and bars point to an outpost kicking far above its weight. What it lacks in size, Luxembourg more than makes up in character. Five reasons to host your next event here:
1. Unmatched public transport
There may be no better example of human-centric, sustainable, reliable and clean public transport than that of Luxembourg. As timely as a Swiss watch and clean as a Singaporean sidewalk, trams, buses and trains in Luxembourg are a traveller’s best friend in this country.
2. Walkable city
With only around 135,000 citizens, Luxembourg City’s compact city centre seems made for walking. From the Gothic front liners to hidden bars, you can walk it all in no time. Keep your eyes peeled for the colourful murals and artworks strewn across the less-fancy facades.
3. Varied selection of hotels
Although pricey, the array of hotels in the city includes hotel chains such as Mama Shelter, Novotel, Melia and others. There is thus a suitable choice for everyone. We recommend staying in one of the hotels in the Kirchberg district near the European Parliament.
4. Film culture embodied
The city harbours a tremendous love for its filmmakers, and connecting an event with a cinematic experience will surely inspire guests and stakeholders alike. Lights, camera, action!
5. Exclusivity and boutiqueness
Luxembourg lures investments because of its enviable quality of life and family-friendly policies. An event in Luxembourg will satisfy even the most demanding event organisers. Attendees who fancy a post-event shopping spree can idly stroll the endless corridors of prestigious brands in the city centre.
