The Austria Center Vienna has reported a record year, generating revenues of EUR25.9m in 2025.

The venue, which was given a makeover in 2024, held 78 events, including the European Congress of Radiology and the European Geosciences Union General Assembly, with around 190,000 participants in 2025.  

It was the first year the venue had operated at full capacity, resulting in a 68 per cent rise in revenue compared to the previous year. According to an EcoAustria study, Austria Center Vienna’s total economic impact was EUR 445 million in terms of GDP effect for Austria.

"We are very proud of this extraordinary result," said Dr Susanne Baumann-Söllner, spokesperson of the venue's board. "The figures impressively demonstrate that, thanks to the modernisation, we are competing in the absolute top tier internationally.

“The fact that one in three international congress delegates in Vienna now visits our venue proves that we are hitting the exact nerve of global event organisers with our modern, digitalised infrastructure and our clear focus on sustainability.”

Building works undertaken in 2025, included the installation of a fully digitalised building management system and new immersive event technology.
