The bcc Berlin Congress Center is a conference venue at Alexanderstraße 11, on Alexanderplatz in Berlin-Mitte. It offers up to 26 rooms on more than 5,000 square meters, and it hosts congresses, conferences and meetings for up to 1,500 people. The largest room, the Kuppelsaal, takes up to 1,000 guests. The team handles most services in-house, from project management to catering.
Seminars and company events
The bcc concentrates on congresses, conferences and meetings, and the team works closely with the organizer on each event. Space for networking, an exhibition and parallel sessions is available alongside the plenary room, so a program with a main stage and several breakout tracks can run in one building.
Almost all services come from in-house resources: project support, catering, cloakroom, tableware, sound technology and security. For an organizer this means fewer suppliers to coordinate. The building suits large association congresses, corporate conferences and trade events, as well as smaller meetings that use only part of the rooms.
Rooms and capacities
The venue states up to 26 usable rooms on more than 5,000 square meters. Movable partition walls allow different combinations, so a room can be sized to the group. Events of up to 1,500 people are possible, and the Kuppelsaal holds up to 1,000.
The official site does not list the capacity of each room on the pages read. Request the room plan for the combination that fits your program and ask which rooms are available on your dates.
Catering
Catering is delivered by the house team, together with tableware and cloakroom service. This covers coffee breaks, standing lunches and larger receptions for congress formats. Ask the team about the menu options that fit your schedule and your number of guests.
History and setting
The architect Hermann Henselmann designed the building as a place of meeting and exchange. The domed building opened in 1964 as a congress hall on Alexanderplatz. Its architecture combines clean lines with ornamental details, the cool look of glass and aluminum with the warmth of wood, and angular forms with rounded ones.
Today the building is described as an architectural landmark. The team of about 120 people works inside it every day.
Getting there
The bcc is on Alexanderplatz in the center of Berlin, easy to reach by public transport and by car. Many hotels, restaurants and shops are within walking distance, as are the Berlin TV Tower and the Brandenburg Gate. This helps organizers who need accommodation for delegates close to the venue. The address is Alexanderstraße 11, 10178 Berlin.
