Rantastic hosts company parties, conferences, product launches, weddings and private celebrations in eight event locations, from an alpine-style hut for about 70 guests to DOCK1, a hall for up to 1,500 standing. The company runs live stages and event venues from Aschmattstraße 2 in Baden-Baden, with one stage in nearby Gaggenau.
Seminars and company events
The business offer covers conferences, workshops and trade fairs, staff and summer parties, product launches, team building, company anniversaries and Christmas parties. DOCK1 is the main option for large groups: up to 1,000 in rows, 500 at gala tables or in blocks, and 300 in a parliamentary layout. Its stage sits in a mobile backdrop that can turn and move, with an old-town and cinema facade on one side and a large screen on the other. A three-storey container structure inside the hall provides lounges that work as VIP areas, workshop rooms, exhibition booths or games zones.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings, including non-religious ceremonies (freie Trauungen), are a regular part of the program, along with birthdays, graduations, communions and funeral receptions. Unser Saal has a large stage with full theatre equipment, a dance floor, LED mood lighting and a sound system, and seats up to 210 at gala tables. For outdoor moments, the Amphitheater has a covered central stage, and the Eventbiergarten has a sand beach, a sun deck and a live stage.

Catering
Rantastic also produces dinner shows, a variety show and a Sunday breakfast buffet. Food for events is arranged with the team, from buffets to themed menus such as the Caribbean dishes served in the beer garden, and the format is set for each event.
History and setting
The locations combine indoor halls with open-air areas, so a single event can start with a reception outside, Festland being presented as a reception or opening area, and move on to a dinner and a show inside. The company describes itself as both a live stage and an event location operator, and its own shows explain the stage, lighting and sound equipment found in the main rooms. In summer, the Amphitheater doubles as an open-air cinema, and Festland lights up with about 1,000 lights at night.
Getting there
The company's address is Aschmattstraße 2, Baden-Baden. The klag-Bühne is in Gaggenau, a short drive from Baden-Baden. Baden-Baden has a station on the Rhine valley line, and Karlsruhe/Baden-Baden airport serves the area.
