City Experiences

Curated culture, wellness, and dining that turn three days in Brașov into a story you’ll remember.

Why Add a Side Event?

Side events transform three retreat days into a story you’ll replay long after you leave. Walk candle-lit castle corridors, taste Transylvanian and other Romanian vintages, or reset body and mind. Shared memories outside the conference walls rest the mind, inspire trust, spark off-agenda breakthroughs, and give you authentic insight into Brașov’s heritage — without conflicting with the core program or draining your business calendar.
