Villibald hosts workshops, offsites, team-building days, client evenings and dinner events for up to 50 guests seated in rows, 60 at dinner or 150 standing. The venue is a town villa built in 1926 on Pirckheimerstraße in Nuremberg, just behind the castle, and it has been rented exclusively for company events since 2022.
Seminars and company events
The house is set up for small and mid-sized teams who want to work away from the office without leaving the city. Four rooms can be used as one plenary space plus break-out areas, so a group can switch between presentations, group work and informal sessions within the same building. The formats the venue lists include workshops, seminars, offsites, team formats, company anniversaries and client events.
The Villibald team also plans and runs events. Its event management covers the schedule, technology, staff, catering, program, photography, decoration and childcare, sourced through a network of local providers. An event design service handles concepts and decoration, with attention to sustainable materials.
For team building, the venue works with local artists on hands-on sessions: jewelry making, pottery, painting and collage. Culinary formats include cheese, wine or olive oil tastings, cocktail workshops and dinner events.
Rooms and capacities
The villa has four flexible rooms. The floor plan also shows a kitchen, a living room, a studio, a gallery, a cloakroom and a balcony, and a tree-lined courtyard is used during events. The venue states these capacities for the house:
- 150 guests standing
- 50 guests seated in rows
- 60 guests for a dinner
Room-by-room layouts are provided on request. Standard equipment includes Wi-Fi, a mobile screen with HDMI connection, two flipcharts, two pinboards, moderation materials and a sound system, along with tables, stools, chairs and sofas. The interiors feel like a home rather than a conference center, with a lounge-style living room next to a workshop room.
Catering
There is no in-house restaurant. Catering is arranged by the Villibald team through its partner network as part of event management, and the kitchen on the floor plan supports dinners and tasting formats. Client testimonials on the site mention healthy food of steady quality.
History and setting
The yellow villa dates from 1926 and stood empty for about ten years before it reopened as a creative venue. Founder Simira Tang, an event and culture manager who previously worked in the cultural department of the City of Nuremberg, took on the project at the end of 2021 and has run Villibald on her own account since summer 2022. Besides private bookings, the house hosts its own formats, such as the FEIERABEND after-work series, second-hand markets, pop-up events and creative workshops.
Getting there
The villa sits in central Nuremberg, directly behind Nuremberg Castle, on Pirckheimerstraße north of the old town. The street number is shared when you book. Nuremberg Airport is the closest airport, and the main train station links the city to Munich, Frankfurt and Berlin by ICE.
