Winter is an excellent time for various corporate and business events. St. Petersburg has the necessary facilities for organising congresses, forums, conferences, presentations, festivals and exhibitions. Companies with extensive experience in organising events of various sizes can help you, and many of the top hotels have a special service to organise conferences and banquets. As well as in the city’s leading hotels, there are conference facilities in sports complexes, business centres, scientific institutes and even in the city’s palaces. The technical facilities correspond to modern standards: audio and video equipment, air-conditioning, and synchronised interpretation facilities.
