In some words

Reims is the largest town in Champagne

Famous for its majestic cathedral where about thirty Kings of France were crowned, Reims has maintained an impressive architectural and cultural heritage: art deco style buildings, Gallo-Roman remains, three UNESCO World Heritage sites with the Tau Palace, Saint-Rémi Basilica and the cathedral.

Some major Champagne Houses are also to be found in the coronation town: Vranken-Pommery, GH Mumm, de Cazanove, Taittinger, and many more welcome you for wonderful events in surprising and prestigious venues.

Furthermore, Reims is known as the leading gourmet destination in France with eight Michelin-star restaurants.

In addition to its cultural and gourmet attractiveness, the town distinguishes itself by its easy access and MICE reception facilities. The TGV station, congress centre, hotels and restaurants are located in the town centre and can be reached easily on foot.
