The Literaturhaus Salzburg rents two rooms on the second floor of the historic Eizenbergerhof at Strubergasse 23, on H.C. Artmann-Platz in Salzburg. An event hall of 69 m² with a stage and a seminar and exhibition room of 52 m² are open to cultural organizers, publishers, companies, institutions and private individuals. The house runs a literary program of its own, so a booking is arranged with its team case by case.
Seminars and company events
A company can use the event hall for a presentation, a product launch, a reading, a small conference or a reception. The seminar and exhibition room suits a workshop, a training session, a breakout group or a small show. The two rooms are next to each other in the same house, which makes it possible to combine a plenary in the hall with group work in the second room.
The technical equipment is more complete than in many rooms of this size. The sound system has a Soundcraft mixing desk, four D&B speakers, several Sennheiser and AKG microphones, four wireless microphones and a headset. Six stage lighting fixtures of 500 W, three ETC Source 4 Zoom of 750 W and three LED Futurelight fixtures can be controlled one by one. A camera can send the picture to another room or record it. A screen of 450 by 350 cm, a projector of 5,200 ANSI lumens, a flip chart, a piano, a black stage curtain and WiFi complete the list.
Rooms and capacities
The event hall (Veranstaltungssaal) measures 69 m², 5.8 m wide and 11.8 m long, with a ceiling height of 4.5 m. The stage is made of five elements of 1 by 2 m, 0.4 m high. The hall is set up café-style, with round tables and chairs. The seminar and exhibition room (Seminar- und Ausstellungsraum) measures 52 m², 5.7 m wide and 9.3 m long, also 4.5 m high, and its seating is arranged on request.
The official page lists no seated capacity, so ask the team for the number that fits your layout. What the house owns gives an idea of the scale: 15 round café tables, about 99 chairs, several buffet and seminar tables, and three beer tables with six benches.
Catering
The house has buffet and seminar tables in several sizes, and the rental page does not mention an in-house caterer. Ask the team whether you bring your own catering and how drinks are handled.
History and setting
The Literaturhaus has worked in Salzburg since 1993 and organizes readings, exhibitions, writing workshops and festivals, such as the Krimifest in November and the multi-day festival Europa der Muttersprachen. A rental is therefore planned around this program. The setting suits events with a cultural or editorial angle, such as a publisher's presentation, an author evening or a conference of a literary association.
Booking
Prices are given on request. The contact for rentals is named on the official rental page, and the house answers by phone and e-mail.
