The Lavaux vineyard has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage since July 2007.

Its unique landscape, between lake and mountain, has been shaped throughout the centuries by man’s own hand.

The region has a large number of top-class establishments, offering quality service, conference rooms, relaxation areas as well as refined restaurants.

The natural beauty of Lavaux and its high quality infrastructure make it an ideal place for all your professional meetings. 

Our region offers many possibilities for organising seminars in historical or unusual places, making your events  memorable. 

Discover the various venues in the next section "Seminars & Conferences".
 
  • The lake and vineyards come together at the doors of the  three meeting rooms of the Hotel Intereurope, between Lausanne and Montreux.  
  • The old halls with their open hearths from Oron Castle add character to this building as a centre for gastronomy. 

  • With three adaptable halls backing onto a medieval village, the Hotel Le Rivage is just a few minutes from Lausanne. 

  • From the terrace of the Baron Tavernier, the fantastic view over Lake Geneva provides a tremendous source of inspiration.    
     
     
  • Art and business meet in the design hall of the Galerie En Beauregard.  

  • The two magnificent period halls of the Châtelard Castle can receive up to 150 guests.

  • Vini Challenge is a team game organised around the tasting of wine and its enigmas, in order to discover the name of the mystery wine.

    All the talents of each member of the teams will be called upon to ensure victory.

    At the end of the games, the winning teams will be awarded prizes on the theme of wine.

    And of course, to reward everyone’s efforts, a “Diploma of Good Winemaking” will be presented to all the participants.

    We wish you a good grape harvest! This normally open air activity can also take place inside, in case of bad weather.
