The St Jakob Park in Basel

The St. Jakob Park, Switzerland's first multipurpose stadium, was inaugurated in 2001 after just two and half years under construction. Situated on the south-eastern edge of the city in extensive park and recreation grounds, the world-renowned Basel architects Herzog & De Meuron have constructed an "experience park", which, with its unique dimension, bold architecture and ultramodern infrastructure, provides the optimum setting for large-scale events with well in excess of 30,000 visitors.

It also provides a suitable venue for all kinds of major sporting and cultural events, exhibitions, customer events, shows and shareholders meetings. It would befit absolutely any occasion or event. The Premium Lounge is a winning spot with its exclusive at-mosphere and unique view of the stadium's interior. It offers space for events with up to 1,000 people.
