Cost
How much does it cost to rent the event room? Are there additional costs for extra services?
The cost of renting an event room at Gurgl Carat depends on your needs on the one hand, and on factors such as room size and duration of the rental on the other. The Hangerer seminar room offers the cheapest daily rental rate. The 41 m2 seminar room offers space for up to 14 people and is perfect for smaller meetings. As a general rule, it can be said: The larger the room requirement, the higher the rent. Consequently, it is also the most expensive if you rent the entire congress center. In return, you get space for up to 500 people (cinema seating) on the hall level and can also use the large foyer and the organizer's office on the first floor. Everything from a single source: At Gurgl Carat, you don't just hire event facilities. We are happy to offer you an “all-round carefree package” for your event. This also includes the organization of event catering, additional event technology, breakout rooms and the booking of hotels and side programs.
The requirements for each event are sometimes very different. That's why you won't find any general price information from us. We will be happy to provide you with a quote that is individually tailored to your event.
Availability
At what times of the year is the event room available? Are there any special availabilities or restrictions?
In principle, the Gurgl Carat can be rented all year round. However, as our congress center is located in the tourist destination of Gurgl at 1,900 m above sea level, the respective seasonal periods must be taken into account, especially for side programs and team-building activities. The summer season in Gurgl lasts from around the end of June to mid-September. The winter season runs from mid-November to the end of April. During the so-called off-season periods, there are no mountain lifts; hotels, restaurants and supermarkets are also generally not open. However, an event in the off-season can also be attractive. For a so-called “Meetcentive” in June 2022, a German retail company deliberately chose the quieter off-season for its annual management meeting. 400 people came together from all over Europe. Hotels were opened exclusively for this group, restaurants were opened earlier and special supporting programmes were organized. Gurgl is worth a visit at any time of year - we will be happy to advise you on the best time for your event in Gurgl.
Technical support
Are there technical staff on site who can help with technical problems?
Your satisfaction is our priority. For this reason, we are there for you in advance to plan the technical side of the event together with you. Technical staff are also always on site during the event and can intervene directly in the event of problems. We would be happy to show you the many possibilities in our congress center during a tour of the Gurgl Carat. Did you know, for example, that the largest room, the Schalfkogel, has a 100 m² screen? Or that there is a full HD webcam system for hybrid meetings? Arrange an appointment for a tour, during which we will be happy to show you our top-class event technology.
Special requirements
Can the Gurgl Carat meet special requirements, e.g. special technical equipment or special room design?

Frequently asked questions
How big should an event room be?
The size of an event space depends on several factors - first on the number of people, second on the type of event - the event format. In any case, a suitable event room must offer enough space for all participants as well as the equipment required (tables, stage, flipcharts, etc.). Depending on these factors, the ideal size of a seminar and event location can be chosen. The ceiling height should also be considered for a pleasant sense of space. The ceilings of Gurgl Carat are 6 meters high. Additionally, Gurgl Carat has a highly flexible room concept, so that the size of the event spaces can be individually adapted to each event. In addition to the size, the equipment (sockets, inventory, event technology, dimming options, lighting, etc.) as well as the services available (catering, project support, accommodation booking, etc.) are also important factors when choosing a location.
