175 years Bertelsmann
A global corporation turns 175 years old.
The 175th anniversary of a global corporation – what a party!
Organizing an anniversary event of this kind, right on our doorstep – we were happy to take on this task.
Bertelsmann invited all employees to experience a unique and diverse anniversary event at its headquarters in Gütersloh. Around 12,000 people spent an unforgettable day at the Schloss Rheda in OWL.
In beautiful summer weather, a variety of anniversary activities invited everyone to participate.
Whether Gutenberg’s printing press, creating your own portrait on a Brigitte cover, or a karaoke performance in front of the DSDS jury – every department of the company came to life. On a large stage, there was a program throughout the afternoon and evening – also featuring entertainment of special appeal created from within the company – charmingly hosted by Nazan Eckes.
The highlight of the employee celebration was Sasha’s performance: he brought the crowd to their feet. Later in the evening, when the illuminated giant marionette Dundu made its way through the crowd and pressed the button to start a light show in the castle park in the middle of the main activity lawn, the excitement knew no bounds. Nordmann Event Consulting was able, together with Bertelsmann, to design an anniversary celebration that left a lasting impression on all employees and participants and will be remembered for a long time.
