It’s settled, you’ve decided to organize your next conference in Bordeaux. Very dynamic culturally speaking, but especially renowned for its proximity to wine, Bordeaux has something to be desired. Ideal for the organization of professional events, Bordeaux has many places that will meet all your criteria. To make your task easier and save you time (we know how busy you are), Eventdrive has made a small selection of the most beautiful places. Discover our selection of 7 places to choose for the organization of your next conference in Bordeaux!

THE CITÉ DU VIN: TO IMPRESS YOUR GUESTS

When we talk about Bordeaux, we are necessarily thinking of the Cité du Vin. This place, recognizable among thousands thanks to its futuristic architecture, opened only a few years ago, but has made a name for itself. Imagine the faces of your guests as they discover that their next conference will take place within its walls? The Cité du Vin has many spaces which can be made private to host all types of professional events, including conferences. Whether you choose the Jefferson Auditorium or the Convivium space, the possibilities are endless. And if your event involves inviting a very large number of people, it is even possible to privatize the entire Cité du Vin!

ARKEA ARENA: A PLACE TO MEET YOUR EXPECTATIONS

SIf you are looking for an original and unique place, Arkea Arena is for you! Arkea Arena is best known for hosting major names in music such as Patrick Bruel or Mariah Carey, and also offers the rental of its spaces for professional events. While the large hall is not necessarily the best location for the organization of a conference (unless you want to do an American-style show), the place has other more suitable rooms. The place is modular according to your expectations and can be customized as desired. For example, you can ask to illuminate the facade of the arena according to your event!
