Event photographer in Klagenfurt

An event photographer in Klagenfurt is a photographer who covers conferences, trade fairs, galas, product launches and company celebrations, capturing speakers, audiences, networking and details so the organiser has pictures for press, social media and next year’s invitation. Klagenfurt’s largest venue is the Messe on the Messeplatz, run by the Klagenfurter Messe Betriebsgesellschaft: around 100,000 m² of exhibition space, 35,000 m² of it in halls, and more than 100 events a year ranging from five to 5,000 participants, from seminars and dance tournaments to rock concerts and congresses.

At the other end of the scale are two very different rooms. Lakeside Spitz in the technology park has halls from 70 to 420 m², all at ground level, with large glass fronts onto the greenery beside a Natura 2000 reserve; the Landhaus, built between 1574 and 1594 on the site of the town’s first castle, has its Great Hall of Arms with 665 coats of arms of the Carinthian estates. Coverage is booked by the hour, from a two-hour reception to a full congress day, with a fast selection on the evening itself and the full edited set within a few days.

Good to know

  • At a trade fair, photograph stands in the first hour after opening, before the aisles fill.
  • For Lakeside Spitz, ask the venue for the stage lighting plan; glass fronts mean daylight changes the colour balance until dusk.
  • In the Wappensaal, reserve 15 minutes in the run of show for the group picture, with the coats of arms behind the guests.
