Meet in Maastricht

Thinking of combining business with pleasure? Then Maastricht is the perfect choice. This compact and very accessible city offers excellent facilities for congresses and conferences for large as well as small groups. In addition, Maastricht is in many ways a very international city – in terms of language expertise as well as accessibility. 

Maastricht & surrounding area is situated in the heart of Europe and can easily be reached by plane, train and car. Maastricht has it’s own airport, named Maastricht-Aachen Airport. Besides an own airport, there are six other (inter)national airports within a radius of 150 kilometres from the city centre of Maastricht.
Maastricht is accessible by train as well. Maastricht has a central station with connections from Amsterdam, Utrecht, Eindhoven and Liège. Travellers from Germany can reach Maastricht by train via Heerlen and Venlo.
You can also travel with the Thalys and/or Eurostar from London, Paris and Brussels to Maastricht via Liège.

Maastricht is also very easy to reach by car. The city has good connections with several highways from Amsterdam, Brussels, Luxembourg, Paris, Aachen and Cologne.

An excellent starting point for organising your meeting is the Maastricht Congres Bureau, which offers MICE organisers objective and independent information and advice, free of charge, on all matters related to the organisation of Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Events.

Organising succes

Organising a successful congress, conference, incentive, trade fair or other event depends on two critical factors: the quality of the accommodation and of the surroundings. Maastricht and South Limburg offer the perfect combination of both. 

A wide range of locations is available to match every taste and requirement, ranging from an international congress centre, châteaus, and hotels to exclusive and unique locations in underground chambers. There are superb restaurants, unique hotels and a rich palette of shops and boutiques. 

The surroundings offer ideal opportunities for incentives as well as social and partner programmes. And last but not least, Maastricht is a very safe city with a great deal of expertise and experience in hosting high-security international meetings (e.g. NATO Top, €uro Top, OVSE).
