AREON Eventhalle Chur is a modular event hall on the Obere Au in Chur for congresses, trade fairs, general assemblies, gala dinners, company events and concerts. The hall takes up to 6,500 guests, the foyer up to 2,000, the loft up to 270 and an open space room up to 80. It is run by Stadthalle Chur AG, and the official site announced the opening for September 2026.
Seminars and company events
The venue lists congresses, meetings, workshops, general assemblies, company parties and trade fairs among its uses. Its rental structure is adapted to the size of the event, so commercial organisers and associations both find a place. A seminar package is available as a download on the site, and an all-in seminar package is shown in the news section. The Open Space room covers smaller formats. It is a daylight room of 80 square meters that can be arranged freely for workshops and seminars, or used as a back-office room during large events. The loft on the upper floor suits board days and half-day meetings for a group of up to 270, and it comes with a spacious foyer and a terrace facing the Graubünden mountains for indoor or outdoor programs.
Weddings and receptions
The official site does not present weddings. It does list gala dinners and company parties, so a reception for a large group can be put to the team in a request.
Rooms and capacities
The Eventhalle covers about 3,200 square meters on the ground floor. Two fixed dividing curtains allow it to be split into two or three set-ups, so a large event and a smaller format can run at different scales. The hall has a stage of 20 by 10 meters, a large LED wall, a rigging system with hanging points above the main stage and an L-Acoustics line-array sound system. Backstage there are three rooms on the west side, one on the north side, a backstage bistro and a box office and info desk for organisers. The foyer holds up to 2,000 guests on nearly 1,000 square meters, according to the rooms page. The loft with its foyer and terrace totals 640 square meters. The whole building, ground and upper floors together, reaches 5,180 square meters.
Catering
The pages read do not describe a catering offer, a house caterer or a list of approved caterers. The backstage bistro is named, but only for the production side. Ask the team in your request how food and drink are handled for your format.
History and setting
The hall was built on the Obere Au. The groundbreaking took place on December 5, 2024, and the opening was planned for September 2026, with a first event series announced on the site. The operator describes the goal as becoming one of the most requested event locations in Graubünden. It sits alongside the smaller event venues of the region and adds a hall for regional and national events.
Getting there
The address is Pulvermühlestrasse 86, 7000 Chur. For logistics the hall has two large roller doors with a clearance of 4.30 meters in height and width, so vehicles can drive up to the stage, and a goods lift runs from the underground car park to the upper floor. Parking includes 200 spaces for guests in an underground garage open around the clock, 900 spaces on the Obere Au, five spaces for organisers around the hall and seven spaces with power and water for tour buses and trailers. The site does not state a nearest station in the pages read.
