Conference Dinner

Conference dinner @ MS LOUISIANA STAR

The four chimneys smoke, the paddle wheel ripples, the steam siren wails. Anyone strolling along the banks of the Elbe cannot fail to notice the MS LOUISIANA STAR, one of the most beautiful event ships in Europe! With its galleries, arches and columns, it exudes opulent Mississippi flair. The MS LOUISIANA STAR is exclusively reserved for our conference dinner on 17 April. Enjoy an extensive harbour cruise with food and drink and get into conversation with the other conference participants.

The conference dinner is already included in your conference ticket. Of course, a bus shuttle to and from our venue is also included. We look forward to this unforgettable evening with you.
