Your stories - our work in action

What did you use VisitAarhus for in connection with the conference? 

VisitAarhus has supported me immensely during the application phase and prepared the core part of the application document together with me.  

Furthermore, we had brainstorming/discussion session together with VisitAarhus about the conference and how to make it a good experience.

VisitAarhus has also provided suggestions for the Reception and Conference Dinner locations and established an initial connection. VisitAarhus also suggested additional (paid) events to be done in conjunction of the conference as well as support through the volunteer network.

Finally, VisitAarhus pointed out the database for the visual material (i.e., photos) of Aarhus and helped me with using it correctly.

What was your experience collaborating with VisitAarhus? 

The experience with VisitAarhus was extremely pleasant and professional. Clearly, VisitAarhus has a lot of experience.  

They provided many good ideas that we did not consider and supported the organization of the conference throughout. This made the application and organization of the conference much easier.

What can Aarhus offer as a ‘conference city’? 

Aarhus is a lovely combination of a cozy and vibrant city. Allowing visitors from all age groups (in our case, from students to retired researchers) to find something to do outside the conference time. This also holds for culinary experiences.

Additionally, Aarhus being very ‘walk-able’, many conference participants enjoyed the opportunity to stroll through the city and surrounding areas in the evenings after the conference.
