Conference Banquet (19:30 - 22:00)


The banquet will take place in the Pöstlingberg Schlössl starting at 19:30. The à-la-carte restaurant presents itself in the impressing style at the turn of the 19th century. Particularly the bar, that formerly served as a library, is an eyecatcher.

Please visit the Pöstlingberg Schlössl Website (German) for more information.

Transportation:

We recommend you enjoy a trip with the Pöstlingberg tram. It leaves in 30 minute intervalls.

Ticket € 5,60 (both ways)

Note that the last tram back to the city center leaves at 22:30.
