Starting this summer, the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings will take place in the new conference centre Inselhalle: On 17 January 2018, Nikolaus Turner, Board Member of the Foundation and the Council for the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings, and Dr. Gerhard Ecker, Lord Mayor of Lindau, have signed a five-year contract for the reconstructed and extended Inselhalle Lindau.

Since the 1980s, the Inselhalle has served as the venue of the Lindau Meetings. Due to the reconstruction during the last two years, the Lindau Meetings took place in the smaller city theatre. The new Inselhalle will offer double the space than previously, accommodating the usual number of participants, which had to be reduced during the reconstruction, and enabling a new programme design due to additional rooms.
