Congress funding from the The Bavarian State Ministry of Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Tourism
- NEW since July 2025 - your conference or congress can be funded from 100 people per day (in the outskirts) and from 200 people per day (in Augsburg)!
The Bavarian State Ministry of Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Tourism provides funding with a budget of 25 Million Euros to strengthen the Bavarian tourism industry through meetings and congresses which take place until the end of 2029.
Who is eligible for funding? Recipients of funding are event organizers or those who are verifiably commissioned by them to plan and carry out events in Bavaria. In particular, the federal government, federal states and municipalities as well as public regional authorities, political parties or comparable foreign organizations are not eligible to apply. Eligible applicants are: - legal entities under private and public law, - partnerships with legal capacity, - self-employed and freelance individuals.
What is funded? Funding is provided for conferences and congresses that are aimed at a specialized audience as closed events. This includes conferences and congresses that are held in conjunction with trade fairs and those held in connection with (legally mandatory) member meetings. Events that meet the following criteria are eligible for funding: - The event takes place in Bavaria. The location of the organizer is irrelevant for the funding. - The event has at least 200 participants on site on each day of the event (100 participants outside of Augsburg). Hybrid events are eligible for funding, but online participants are not counted when determining the number of participants. - The event lasts at least two days with a minimum of four hours of content per day. Breaks and program parts that are primarily for entertainment purposes are not considered as part of the content program. - The event is held for the first time or is held again in Bavaria for the first time in three years, or it is a regional event rotating in Bavaria and neighbouring states that does not have a fixed location. - The venue for the event cannot be provided or rented by the applicant or a legally affiliated organizational unit (e.g. subsidiary).
Only expenses incurred directly in connection with the organization of the event are eligible for funding. Expenses for a supporting program are not eligible for funding. The supporting program is defined as parts of the event that take place alongside the main technical program and do not serve the purpose of professional exchange. Eligible expenses (by category) are: - Rent for event spaces including operating and ancillary parts, - Expenses for catering, - Expenses for technology, equipment, etc., - Fees, travel expenses, expenses for accommodation and meals for moderators, speakers and interpreters - Expenses for general organization, - Registration/hostesses on site, - Expenses for public relations, - Expenses for security, - Protective and hygiene measures. Value-added tax is only eligible if the beneficiary is not entitled to deduct input tax for the sponsored event.
How high is the funding? The amount of funding is staggered according to the number of attendees on site and the number of congress days. If at least 30% of the participants come from abroad, a funding supplement of 30% is granted. If the event takes place entirely during the congress off-season (August or November to March), a funding supplement of 20% is granted. Both supplements can also be applied for cumulatively for an event.

What is not funded? - Trade fairs, exhibitions, cultural, sports events and similar formats, even if they are aimed exclusively at a specialized audience and/or are linked to an eligible event, and leisure events; - Purely company, association and club events as well as events within existing business relationships, events within a scientific institution and comparable conferences and events; - Events for which the applicant or a third party is legally obliged to carry out.
Please note: In particular, the conclusion of a supply or service contract attributable to the execution of the project is to be regarded as an early start of the measure that is detrimental to the subsidy. This includes rental agreements for event spaces, service or rental agreements for technology, catering contracts, contracts for the promotion of the event. If such commitments are made before the application is submitted, funding for the entire event is excluded.
How does the funding work? - The funding is granted as project funding by way of fixed-amount financing as an earmarked, non-repayable grant. - Only expenses incurred directly in connection with the implementation of the event are eligible for funding. - The amount of funding is staggered according to the number of participants on site and the number of conference days. The more participants there are on site and the longer the event lasts, the higher the corresponding funding amount.

Feeling at ease at the eco-friendly carbon neutral Kongress am Park Augsburg
Congresses, among many other events, do affect the environment through the arrival and departure of visitors, board and lodging in town and the wastage of energy, water and paper. Sustainability for us has been a matter of course since the energetic refurbishment: we have looked at the organisation process in its entirety and have developed a sustainable concept to make sure that all the events taking place at Kongress am Park are socially acceptable. In Augsburg, city of environmental awareness, people and the environment shall take centre stage.

The congress centre is a showcase for ecological restoration and energy efficiency in a listed heritage building.
Its energy supply is entirely carbon neutral thanks to a block heating station and solar panels. That way the block of buildings is provided with energy and heating ecologically, efficiently, and eco-friendly. Local hydroelectric power stations provide for further energy.
On top of that, the Stadtwerke Augsburg launched the city's first fuel cell – and at the same time the first fuel cell at work in a German congress centre. The fuel cell provides energy and heating with a very low degradation of energy (about 16%) and produces only half of the output of carbon dioxide than the customary energy mix does. The cell annually produces 13,000 kWh of energy and therefore serves five average households; it also produces 200 litres of warm water per day.
The monitoring by the Stadtwerke Augsburg oversees and optimizes the facilities online and it managed to lower the energy consumption by 70% compared to the pre-restoration era.
