Your Event Partner. For all.

20.000 Squaremeterpossibilities

The Location. For Promoters.

Switzerland has a number of indoor arenas capable of hosting 10.000 guests. However, St. Jakobshalle Basel is more than that.

With a total of eleven separate venues, as well as a generous Foyer, a VIP Corner and a Business Corner, you will find perfect conditions on 20.000 m2 to host practically any type of event on our premises, be it a public mega-event, a conference, or a workshop seminar. We are your competent and reliable partner supporting you from initial ideas through to completion.

St. Jakobshalle Basel, located on a trinational border triangle between Switzerland, Germany and France, has been the ideal location to host a wide variety of events since the year 1976. After extensive renovation works have been completed in 2018, it is now one of the most modern and versatile venues in Europe, offering functional single-source solutions.

The St. Jakobshalle Basel offers outstanding conditions for your event. The new balcony adjoining the VIP Corner, for example, lets your guests directly access to the large Arena. The various halls and rooms can be used individually or in combination as required. This makes it feasible to set up large sporting events with additional training and competition halls, as well as providing sophisticated catering infrastructure and a Media Centre, or to hold different events under one roof at the same time.

Our highly experienced Event Management Team in-house team will assist you with the planning of your next event. We are personally committed, technically versatile and run our own catering department.

Add an extra dimension to your event and make it even more memorable for your guests, partners and customers. St. Jakobshalle Basel is equipped with a modern infrastructure in order to meet even the most demanding requirements. The hospitality area can be separated from the public area in both the access and service areas, if required.

We work exclusively with referenced partners throughout the entire supply chain, from suppliers to all service providers. The catering department of St. Jakobshalle Basel is subdivided into the following three catering areas:

VIP/Corporate Events

A number exclusive areas and spaces, some with a direct view of the stage in the Arena, can be offered to your VIP guests:

  • VIP Restaurant
  • Business Corner
  • VIP Corner / VIP Balcony
  • Dine & View
  • Foyer with eight units for stand-up Dinner or Apéro Riche

A fully equipped commercial kitchen, capable of handling daily capacities of up to 3.000 people, is located in the immediate vicinity of the above-mentioned guest areas. This kitchen is designed to guarantee the perfect handling, starting from delivery to preparation to distribution and serving. Corporate Events can generally be held in every hall.

Audience

St. Jakobshalle Basel provides autonomous public catering in the units provided for this purpose, in conjunction with its established partners. The catering on offer is always customised in advance and adapted to a specific event. Eight catering boxes in the Foyer are used for larger public events. Most of these are equipped with cooking facilities. The type of catering on offer is showcased to customers via fitted screens. All gastro-boxes are equipped with a cash register system, enabling quick payment transactions with all regular cash-free payment methods.

The Foyer is equipped with bar tables and occasional seatings in compliance with the applicable safety regulations. For very large events, St. Jakobshalle Basel offers additional mobile catering facilities in the entrance area of the Foyer and under the canopy outside the main Arena. For the sake of the environment, reusable crockery and a deposit system are used exclusively in the public area.

Staff

Catering for staff and artists takes place in separated, private areas, not visible to the public. Exhibitors may not be catered for in the staff area. The staff catering is exclusively not bound by current supplier and partner contracts, allowing promoters or artists to choose their own caterers. All regulatory requirements (food law, protection of minors, customs regulations, reusable crockery, etc.) must be observed.

The backstage area has a small, separately accessible kitchen unit, equipped with all necessary electrical and sanitary connections, as well as a washing-up area. Only persons with the appropriate accreditation are allowed in this area. Hall 4 is used for the purpose of larger staff catering, as it has a back-office room equipped with the necessary sanitary facilities and the usual electrical connections.

Contact our Gastro Team to discuss your specific requirements. You will find further information and technical details in the Login Area.
