Reims, a sparkling destination !
The EOQ Congress in 2024 will take place in Reims. Easily accessible from Europe's major economic hubs and only 45 minutes from Paris by train, Reims is known worldwide for its Champagne. Reims is also distinguished by its unique and rich historical heritage.
7 of its sites and monuments have been designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Perhaps, you’ll take the time to visit the Reims Cathedral, a Gothic Catholic cathedral dedicated to the Virgin Mary. It was the traditional location for the coronation of the kings of France and maybe the Automobile Museum
Reims-Champagne. But of course, you will certainly take a look around as it is where the most famous champagne houses have their cellars : Moët & Chandon, Mercier, De Castellane, Mumm, Pommery, Ruinart, Pol Roger, Perrier-Jouët….
Venue
The conference will take place at the Convention Center of Reims.
Entirely clad in metal, aluminum and glass, the Convention Center presents itself as a vessel of slender lines. Its design, by Claude VASCONI, is resolutely contemporary and functional. Moored alongside the canal, its glass roof overlooks a vast landscaped park. Ideally located in the heart of the city, it is just a 5-minute walk from the historic center, a high-quality hotel complex, the main cafés and restaurants, and the TGV train station.
The amphitheater of the Convention center offers exceptional seating comfort and excellent acoustics.
On the same level, the meeting rooms are easily accessible to host workshops from the plenary sessions.

Gala dinner
Impossible to come to Reims without discovering a champagne house !
For our gala dinner, we are proud to welcome you at The Domaine Pommery, one of the most famous champagne brand in the world.
Producing with the greatest respect for the environment is a duty for a prestigious “appellation d'origine contrôlée”. This concern is part of a sustainable development objective for the House's activities. Since 2014, the vineyard has held both the "Viticulture Durable en Champagne" and "Haute Valeur Environnementale" labels. The variety of grapes that go to make up Pommery champagnes, the quality of the annual harvest, the choice of crus for blending: all parameters that nuance the flavors.
The Domaine Pommery opens the doors of its magnificent buildings in the Elizabethan style and invites you to discover its cellars and crayères (chalk pits), inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List
Veritable underground cathedrals dating back to the Gallo-Roman period, some of them boasting monumental bas reliefs sculpted in the chalk.
- 18 kilometres of cellars
- 60 Gallo-Roman crayères (chalk pits)
- A staircase with 116 steps for an exceptional tour at 30 metres below ground.
The gala dinner is included in the registration fee for all attendee.
It is possible to add an accompanying person for 160 €.
