Come for business
Stay for a good time
Düsseldorf brings people together – over a glass of Altbier in a local brewery, sushi in Little Tokyo or discovering new corners off the beaten track. Those looking to unwind after work will find hidden side streets, small boutiques and quaint restaurants in the city's neighbourhoods. Enjoy the relaxed atmosphere, meet new people and immerse yourself in Rhenish hospitality – the perfect way to end the day and make new contacts.
Experience Düsseldorf away from trade fairs and meetings
Go with the flow
The Düsseldorf band Die Toten Hosen sings about drifting through the old town streets towards the Rhine terraces, making your day in Düsseldorf unforgettable. The Rhine is the hub – from here, streets lead to the modern MedienHafen (media harbour) or the green Hofgarten. Enjoy an after-work beer with a panoramic view or stroll along the Art:walk, which takes you through six renowned museums and right into the heart of city life.
