The Messe Wien Exhibition & Congress Center, inaugurated at the start of 2004, offers sophisticated and versatile facilities. The halls, furnishings and equipment, and architecture assure maximum functionality and an ideal atmosphere.
The Messe Wien consists of five separate buildings with different functions. All are close to each other and linked by covered walkways.
Exhibition space
The center has 46,000 sqm of gross exhibition space in three exhibition halls (Halls A, B and C), as well as Hall D -a 9,000 sqm multi-purpose facility which is also equipped for entertainment events.
A 450-metre mall connects the four halls, the Congress Center and the foyers A and D.
The majority of the five function areas can be divided up and combined according to need. Floor spaces between 500 and 62,000m² accommodate events, whatever the
size and type.

The Messe Wien is by far the biggest and the most important convention centre in Austria. It hosts the biggest conventions of Austria - however, referring to an article published in "Die Presse" - even these conventions are "...far from being big by international standards". There are exceptions to this rule, though: I first made it to the Messe Wien in 2007 when I worked as a science editor for the National Broadcast ORF and a convention of the European Society of Cardiology was held there - with almost 30,000 visitors.
