Ultimate online conferences for a new reality

on air

Cankarjev dom is a professional congress organiser and a pillar of Slovenia’s congress industry. Our mission is organising meetings.

We organise the events entrusted to us with experience, expertise and technological support. The challenges we have been confronting these past years encouraged us to develop new ways of planning and implementing. 

We have entered the digital age with the upgraded EventsAir meeting management software, a platform hosting countless events around the world. A tried-and-tested technology, we have used it for registration and communicating with participants, expert committees, for accepting and evaluating contributions (abstracts and papers), planning exhibitions, organising posters and numerous other tasks requisite for the successful implementation of a congress or conference. 

The OnAir module today allows for unlimited meetings in an online or hybrid format.
 

We realize everything thinkable, as well as everything thought unrealizable.

Hosting a broad variety of national and international meetings since 1980, Cankarjev dom Congress and Cultural Centre Ljubljana is one of Slovenia’s busiest conferencing and expos hubs. A meetings and events industry pioneer, CD is member of international associations IAPCO and ICCA, as well as national professional organisations – the Slovenian and Ljubljana convention bureaus.

Our venues

Cankarjev dom boasts 22 multi-purpose conference halls and represents the largest purpose-built convention centre in Slovenia. A big advantage is the diversity of spaces for different convention needs. The main venue, 2000-seat Gallus Hall is the largest hall of this type in Slovenia (auditorium) and embodies the concept of extraordinary acoustics.

Venue with a total surface of 36.000 sq. m. can accommodate up to 5000 visitors, with extensive lobby exhibits it has already carried out a number of conferences with large accompanying exhibitions. 

Where we are

An dministrative centre of Ljubljana, where Cankarjev dom is located,  is easily accessible on foot, by car or by public transport. Under the Square of the Republic there is a large parking garage, and the latest one is just a stone's throw away under the Congress Square. Both are sufficient to cover the needs of motorised conference guests. A great advantage of the location is that all the city's attractions, and especially the key hotels are within walking distance. In these terms Cankarjev dom is a very friendly and nice location to conference guests.

As part of the "Safe and Healthy Events" initiative, the Slovenian Convention Bureau has defined the safety and health standards at events or meetings in cooperation with the National Institute of Public Health (NIJZ). The standards aim to ensure a higher level of health security for both event participants and staff and to limit the possible spread of communicable diseases, in particular COVID-19.

Because we believe in face-to-face meetings, Cankarjev dom joined the initiative and earned the Slovenian Convention Bureau's "Safe and Healthy Meetings & Events" certificate, which confirms that Cankarjev dom meets the criteria in the categories "Conference & Event Organizer" and "Venue". By following the standards of the highest level of health security for event participants and attendees, we have further committed ourselves to providing services of the highest quality.
