84% of Aarhus' hotel rooms have received an official environmental certification. Many meeting venues and restaurants in Aarhus have also received certifications and with everything in walking distance, no transportation is needed in the city centre. 

85-90% CO2 reduction in 2030

With the city’s aim of being almost carbon neutral in 2030, public as well as private, initiatives supporting this are increasing. This also reflects on your conference, where you can serve food with local ingredients, use certified venues as well as use transport with a lower carbon footprint and much, much more.

What is to come?

The links below take you to a wide array of useful information and handbooks as well as an overview of certified hotels, venues and restaurants in order for you to support the green transition as much as possible with your conference.
