A not so wise city for an inventive BtoB event

Only 2 hours by TGV from Paris, Bordeaux is a city with many facets that will surprise you. 

A port city with a crescent-shaped moon, a city with beautiful golden stones, Bordeaux is the ideal playground to create a professional day or residential event that will dazzle your guests and encourage exchanges and cohesion.

A city that is easy to access for your guests

The TGV station (Bordeaux is 2 hours from Paris) and the international airport of Mérignac allow you to invite clients from Paris and further away with almost disconcerting ease.

Whether it's a meeting with the team of your overseas subsidiary, a moment of gathering for your teams, or a brainstorming session on your next product, Bordeaux offers you plenty of choices! Spend less time in transit and more time in the fresh air in this human-sized city where you can do almost everything on foot. 

A remarkable urban and cultural setting

Bordeaux has all the qualities of a city with a rich historical past. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2007, it has the beauty of classic and timeless monuments. Its stone facades, its majestic courtyards and its large squares constitute a prestigious setting for your professional event.

Bordeaux also benefits from an exceptional natural environment. The world-famous Bordeaux vineyards offer unique escapades for gourmets. And what about the immense beaches of the Atlantic coast, which are a delight for surfers and lovers of wide open spaces?

If you want to organize an unforgettable professional event between land and sea, Bordeaux has all the assets to make you win the game.

Stimulate your event creativity in Bordeaux

Far from resting on its past laurels, Bordeaux has reinvented itself and looked to the future. 

The quays of Bordeaux, which stretch over more than 4km along the Garonne, are a must-see recreational area.
The Corajoud Promenade offers a 93-hectare area that has been entirely rehabilitated on both banks. This contemporary landscaping highlights the remarkable urban heritage through planted pedestrian spaces, such as the famous Miroir d'eau.
An
excellent way to digest an appointment, a meeting or a business lunch, before going to drink a coffee as a team on one of the many terraces facing the Garonne.

A city open to soft mobility for a car-free event

The development of public transportation and bicycle paths allows for easy circulation in all of Bordeaux's historic districts. 

You will thus be able to take advantage of the city's many resources without taking the car, in record time. For example, you can combine a visit to the Grand Théâtre, a gourmet break in a chic downtown bistro and a stroll along the quays, all on foot, by bike or by public transport.

An elegant and atypical professional event in Bordeaux

A city at the heart of new societal and environmental issues

Bordeaux is known for its historical monuments, but it is also full of nuggets to get off the beaten track and make your guests aware of new societal and environmental issues.

The most emblematic place of this new bohemian spirit is without a doubt the Darwin-ecosystem. Located on the right bank of the Garonne, in the Bastide district, this former disused barracks now offers an open and creative space.

La Faïencerie, a neo-industrial atmosphere for your BtoB event

La Faïencerie is today the largest reception area of character in Bordeaux. Its rich industrial past is still reflected in its architecture, which has been rehabilitated in a loft style. A witness to the history of the Docks, the Faïencerie was home to the manufacture of the famous "Vieillard" earthenware in the 19th century, which was exported all over the world from the port of Bordeaux (the Port of the Moon).

This former workshop breathes an original neo-industrial spirit into your event. An elegant and relaxed atmosphere in its 1200m2 for your working days, workshops, conferences, dinners, gala evenings, showrooms, launch parties or cocktail parties up to 600 people.
