TagungsBarometer Cologne

Convention statistics - facts, figures and data

Conducting continuous market research and the associated collection of relevant data on the MICE industry plays an important role in the implementation of destination marketing. With the introduction of the "Cologne Conference Barometer", we have been collecting valid data on the conference and congress market in Cologne since 2009. We carry out this project in co-operation with a neutral partner, the EITW - Europäisches Institut für TagungsWirtschaft GmbH. The EITW is also responsible for the "Meeting & Event Barometer" study for Germany. In 2024, we were able to present the results of the Cologne Meeting & Event Barometer for the 15th time. This would not have been possible without the support of our industry partners. We would therefore like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have continuously participated and thus contributed to the availability of this helpful data on the overall market in Cologne.

The extensive analysis and elaboration of the results are exclusively for the participants of the market study. You are welcome to participate at all times. Please contact us, in case you have further questions.
