Forecast

Saturday marked the beginning of a period of nice summer weather as the area of high pressure which has built in over the Alps will stay for quite a few days. The weather will therefore continue to be bright and clear and the few darker cumulus clouds which may appear during the afternoon should stay harmless.

Tendency

The best news of today’s weather forecasts is found in the trend: the new area of high pressure over Europe will stay with us for several days.

The Innsbruck Ambassador Programme

Innsbruck is not only the heart of the Alps but also a dynamic hub for science, research, and international exchange. To strategically promote these potentials and enhance Innsbruck’s visibility as a prominent congress destination, the Congress Ambassador Programme was established.

At its core are dedicated researchers and scholars who, through their professional expertise, esteemed reputation, and extensive networks, contribute to attracting international congresses to Innsbruck. In doing so, the programme strengthens Innsbruck’s international connectivity and reinforces its position as an attractive location for congresses. Initiated by the Innsbruck Convention Bureau, the programme enjoys institutional support from Congress Messe Innsbruck as well as the universities of Innsbruck.
