Planning a company event in Lower Saxony
Lower Saxony’s corporate life centres on Hanover, whose exhibition grounds are among the largest in the world, and on the industrial cities of Wolfsburg and Braunschweig. For seminars away from the city, the state offers manor estates, hotels in the Harz and the Lüneburg Heath, and quiet venues on the North Sea coast.
When to go
Hanover’s large trade fairs, the industrial fair in spring above all, fill hotels across the region, so the fair calendar comes first. Spring to early autumn suits the heath, the Harz and the coast; the islands and coastal resorts are busy in the summer holidays. The Harz also works in winter, with snow on the heights.
Getting the team there
Hanover sits where the north to south and east to west ICE lines cross, which makes it easy to reach from Hamburg, Berlin, Frankfurt and the Ruhr. Its airport has European flights, with Hamburg and Bremen as alternatives for the north. Wolfsburg, Braunschweig, Göttingen and Osnabrück have ICE stations; rural venues need a coach.
Congress centres, manor estates and coastal hotels
Hanover has congress centres and large conference hotels, and Wolfsburg, Braunschweig and Göttingen have their own halls. Manor estates and castle hotels in the countryside take seminars with rooms on site. The Harz and the Lüneburg Heath have seminar hotels with spa facilities, and the coast and islands suit small groups seeking seclusion.
Activities
Guided walks on the mudflats of the Wadden Sea, an East Frisian tea ceremony, carriage rides or hikes in the Lüneburg Heath and mountain hikes in the Harz are typical choices. Around Wolfsburg, programmes often include a visit linked to car manufacturing. Half-timbered towns such as Celle and Goslar make easy outings.

By ICE to Hanover, which has direct trains from most large German cities, or by air to Hanover, Hamburg or Bremen. A coach covers the transfer to the heath, the Harz or the ferry ports.
