Last updated date : 06/05/2026
A 900 m² event venue ideally situated in the heart of Lyon, on the banks of the Saône in an idyllic and peaceful setting, L'Embarcadère can host events for between 50 and 700 guests across six flexible spaces and a 200 m² terrace.
L'Embarcadère, a true urban haven of peace, hosts all your business events in a setting that is both centrally located and rejuvenating. This venue offers six flexible spaces, bathed in natural light thanks to large bay windows offering direct views of the Saône and the Sainte-Foy valleys. Its 200m² waterside terrace is a major asset for your cocktail receptions, informal gatherings and team-building activities.
Seminars, conferences, congresses, conventions, general meetings, trade fairs, roadshows, gala dinners or corporate events: L’Embarcadère’s experienced team, with over 20 years of expertise, supports you at every stage of your event. From conception to production, they orchestrate all services — set design, audiovisual solutions, furniture, catering, entertainment and CSR initiatives — as part of a comprehensive package designed to enhance your events and ensure their success.
Beyond the event experience itself, it incorporates a responsible, practical and measurable approach into every project. From calculating carbon footprints and responsible catering to ensuring accessibility via sustainable transport and optimising resources, its CSR solutions enable organisers to balance event performance with a commitment to sustainability.
These commitments are implemented across more than 150 professional events each year, in the heart of Lyon. Convinced that events fulfil an essential need to come together, communicate and create, this venue sees hosting over 20,000 participants a year as an opportunity to promote more virtuous practices.
To take this further, the team provides organisers with a CSR white paper and a range of dedicated resources to help them design high-impact events that are more responsible and fully aligned with current challenges.
