MS Linzerin


Open-air corporate events on the Danube

The power of water has not just a calming effect but also a stimulating one. So take advantage of the gentle and refreshing rocking of the Danube to turn your seminar or corporate event aboard the MS Linzerin into a unique experience. The modern facilities on board ship make for memorable events where the focus is on enjoying a change of scene with your team along with wonderful views of the water and natural landscapes. Thanks to the high standard of the equipment, you can hold events that are both exclusive and glamorous either inside or out on deck with your guests, while seeing the city of Linz from a very different perspective.

Ship ahoy in Linz

Float along Austria's blue artery as you work: as the MS Linzerin glides past the ever-changing scenery, inspired ideas are guaranteed at your seminar, workshop,conference or congress. This mobile venue features unique views of the Upper Austrian capital and the idyllic Danube valley, providing the ideal backdrop for dinners, Christmas parties, team-building events and incentives. So how do you get to your sparkling MICE experience on the water? Via the main landing stage just by the Donaupark in Linz, next to the Lentos Art Museum. However, since the boat is a mobile venue, it's also possible to embark at different places along the Danube. The pleasant sun deck has room for 130 people. In the spacious interior measuring 300 square metres, with banquet seating there is ample room for 220 participants. A cocktail arrangement even permits 300 people to be inside at the same time. On board the MS Linzerin you are much more than just an event organiser – you're the captain of your own event.

Floating corporate events on the Danube

The MS Linzerin is a real insiders' tip as an event venue and destination for an outing. The stylish yet comfortable furnishings ensure passengers' wellbeing: the furniture and décor on board are in muted pastel tones, while thoughtful greenery creates a spring-like atmosphere on the decks. The eye-catching, bright design ensures that every moment aboard the 60-metre-long ship feels like a holiday on the water. It's easy to incorporate the comfortable lounge chairs on the sun deck into your event, for example as the perfect starting point for a champagne reception. Yet more highlights come in the form of delicious treats from the galley, produced by the on-board catering service: choose whatever you fancy, from canapés to sit-down meals to varied buffets. In addition to the culinary delicacies, on board the MS Linzerin you'll also find first-class multimedia technology, with flat screens, a retractable screen, projector and loudspeaker system to meet all your event needs. For multi-day events on board the ship, the Arcotel Nike close to the mooring point provides stylish overnight accommodation. 

Explore the Danube valley around the MS Linzerin

The main square of Linz in the city centre is just a few minutes' walk from the mooring point. You and your guests can explore the inner city from a triple perspective of culture, industry and nature: the city's museums and cultural centres host numerous festivals and concerts, contemporary art and technology exhibitions. After a stimulating seminar on board, nature-lovers are recommended to take a ride up Linz's nearest mountain on the Pöstlingberg mountain tram. Linz is also the ideal starting point for other excursions or team-building events: you can take a tour to explore the Wachau, the Salzkammergut or the Schlögener Schlinge – probably the most famous loop in the river Danube. Back on board, you will fully appreciate the links between the city and the ship: all the glass and skylights pay atmospheric tribute to the modern architecture of Linz's glass buildings along the Danube, such as the Brucknerhaus and the Ars Electronica Center. With its many attractions, on board and ashore, the MS Linzerin is a real highlight for excursions and events, a pearl of a venue in the heart of Austria.
