Marx Halle Vienna rents hall space for trade fairs, company events, galas, concerts and private parties, with up to 8,000 guests in its largest studio. The venue is a 19th-century industrial monument at Karl-Farkas-Gasse 19 in the 3rd district of Vienna, and the complex covers about 20,000 square meters.
Seminars and company events
The hall is built for large business formats: product presentations, customer events, Christmas parties, summer parties, congresses and conferences. The venue names Studio 1 and Studio 3 for corporate events, and the two studios can be combined. Outdoor areas can be added to the booking. The organizer is free to choose technology, catering and other services, so a company can bring its own suppliers or assemble the package it needs.
The GLOBE Wien, a cabaret theater inside the hall for up to 1,400 guests, suits plenary sessions and conferences that need a stage and fixed audience layout. Studio 1 is the space the venue recommends for gala dinners, thanks to its generous floor area and the scale of the iron and steel structure.
Weddings and receptions
The site lists private parties among its uses but does not describe a wedding offer. Couples and wedding planners should ask the team whether a wedding can be held here and in which studio.
Rooms and capacities
The hall measures 175 meters by 114 meters, with a height of up to 17 meters. Four studios can be used at the same time and independently of each other.
Studio 1 has about 4,000 square meters and holds up to 4,000 guests. It includes a production office and two artist dressing rooms, each with a shower, toilet and make-up mirror. Studio 2 has about 2,000 square meters and holds up to 1,000 guests, behind an original glass facade from 1881. Studio 3 has about 8,000 square meters, a central aisle with a glass roof and a 3 by 4 meter roller door for deliveries. The venue states a maximum of 8,000 guests there. GLOBE Wien has about 2,200 square meters and up to 1,400 guests. Studio 4 is also offered for fairs, corporate events and concerts, without published figures.
The four spaces with figures are barrier-free.
Catering
The venue does not name a caterer or publish a menu. Catering is left to the organizer, alongside technology and other services. Ask the team which suppliers they know and whether an outside caterer can be brought in.
History and setting
The Marx Halle is a historic industrial building. Columns and girders give the hall its look, and the glass facade dates from 1881. It is run by the HEY-U Mediagroup and has become a fixed address of Vienna's event and cultural scene. Past events include the SPARK Art Fair Vienna, the Sporthilfe Gala, the Duftstars perfume awards and large concerts.
Getting there
The hall stands at Karl-Farkas-Gasse 19, 1030 Vienna, close to the city center. The website has a dedicated directions page. For deliveries, load-in and parking, speak to the team during the location check they offer before booking.
