Karlstad CCC is a congress and culture center on the bank of the Klarälven river in central Karlstad, which it describes as one of the largest congress and conference facilities in the Nordic countries. It has 19 rooms for 6 to 1,620 people, 3,300 m² of exhibition space and a restaurant with room for 1,200 seated guests. Congresses, conferences, kick-offs, trade fairs and large dinners are the core of what it organizes.
Seminars and company events
The center is located between Stockholm, Gothenburg and Oslo, which suits national and cross-border meetings. Meeting rooms offer 18,000 m² of floor space, and every conference room has natural light from the panoramic windows that face the river. Many rooms can be adjusted with movable glass walls, so organizers can shape meeting areas and mingling areas for each program. At the heart of the building is the concert and congress hall Sola, which takes 1,620 people. The project managers say they build each package to the organizer's needs and aim to make the planner's job as simple as possible. The center reports a customer satisfaction rate of 97 percent.
