Joint marketing of the St.Gallen city center

From summer 2024, the City Management Board (CMB) will launch coordinated advertising measures with the aim of strengthening the perception of the local city center experience and business through joint marketing. The CMB is investing an annual basic contribution for this. In addition, the individual member organizations increase the budget pot individually. The aim is to join forces and allow the individual city center businesses, restaurants, events, etc. to participate in the advertising measures by allowing them to buy in at attractive conditions.

From mid-August 2024, city centre life and offerings will be centrally presented and summarized on a new landing page for the city centre at www.meine-stadt.sg. Inspiring and attractive "alleyway reports" will whet the appetite for a visit to the various city center districts. A report on Spisergasse kicks things off. More alleyways will follow in the future to showcase the diversity of the city center.

In addition to a specific landing page on www.meine-stadt.sg, advertising material for the city center will be displayed regionally via social media and PR articles will be placed on Tagblatt Online. The CMB is entering into a media partnership with the Tagblatt.
