The Congress Center Leipzig (CCL) hosts congresses, conferences and conventions in 23 rooms and halls, from 30 to 1,000 seats, plus multifunctional areas. It stands on the grounds of Leipziger Messe at Seehausener Allee 1 in Leipzig and connects to the other locations of the exhibition center, so a congress can grow well beyond a single building.
Seminars and company events
The CCL can be used on its own or together with the Glass Hall and the adjoining exhibition halls. The operator presents this combination as the way to hold congresses of almost any size, for example a plenary in a large hall with a trade exhibition in the neighboring spaces. In the administration building of Leipziger Messe, a conference area adds eight further conference rooms. The operator describes the center as one of the most modern congress and conference centers in Europe, a claim the page makes about itself.
Rooms and capacities
The official page gives the range rather than a room-by-room list: 23 rooms and halls with 30 to 1,000 seats, and multifunctional areas for formats that do not need fixed seating. Plan on a single hall of up to 1,000 seats, then add the eight rooms of the administration building and, if needed, the Glass Hall or the exhibition halls. Ask the venue for the plan of the individual rooms and their layouts before fixing a program.
Technical equipment
Technical equipment can be rented, including design and operation by specialist staff. The page lists fully equipped halls and video conference rooms, video cameras, sound and interpreting facilities, and technology for image and sound recording. Wired internet connections with high bandwidth and wireless access are available across the exhibition center.
Accommodation and services
The site has no hotel of its own on the page. Leipziger Messe operates a hotel portal for visitors, advertised with short cancellation periods and booking without risk. As an integrated event service provider, the Leipziger Messe group states that it covers all aspects of the events business from a single source. Ask which services, including catering, are included in your booking.
Getting there
The exhibition grounds lie right by the motorway, and Leipzig/Halle Airport is eight minutes away by car. Parking is available, and the page mentions good connections to public transport. GPS coordinates for the CCL car park are 51°23'56'' N, 012°23'54'' E. For larger meetings, the CCL belongs to a set of venues that also includes the KONGRESSHALLE am Zoo Leipzig and the multifunctional HALLE:EINS, which gives the organizer alternatives within the same operator.
