"It's exciting to be involved when new worlds of experience are created in the Eulachhallen"

The largest event location in Winterthur, the Eulachhallen, continues to be one of the best event locations in Switzerland and has received the "Excellent" seal of approval at the Swiss Location Award 2023. We asked Managing Director Barbara Aeppli 3 questions about the special features of this popular event location.

Ms. Aeppli, you say that Winterthur and the Eulachhallen are a perfect match. Why is that?
As the sixth largest city in Switzerland, Winterthur has become a popular destination for event organizers - and rightly so. Winterthur is easily accessible and an attractive city with a wide range of cultural, service, sporting and tourist attractions. A city like this needs an equally diverse event location. As Winterthur's largest event location, we offer space for up to 3,200 people. From trade fairs, exhibitions, congresses and seminars to sporting events, concerts, professional examinations and corporate events - pretty much anything is possible on our 5,200 m².

Since the modernization in 2020, the Eulachhallen have been the largest event location in Winterthur. What is special about your event halls?
There's not much left of the former sports hall atmosphere. Our modernized Hall 1 amazes people. Organizers and guests are delighted with the modern ambience and the central location - and at the same time the Eulachhallen are surrounded by greenery. Our multifunctional location is at ground level, can be accessed by vehicles and has permanently installed event technology. The range of adjoining rooms is another plus point for many. Our experienced team puts its heart and soul into making our guests feel at home in the Eulachhallen.

What was your favorite event in the Eulachhallen?
The mix of events is what makes it special for me. The public events are just as interesting as the corporate events. It's always exciting to be involved when new worlds of experience are created in the Eulachhallen. Ultimately, it's the satisfied faces after a successful event that make us happy.
