BigBOX Allgäu, Event venue in Kempten, Germany

BigBOX Allgäu is a modern multifunctional entertainment complex featuring a performance hall, four-star hotel, and restaurant in Kempten's pedestrian district in the south. The facility integrates accommodation and event space in a single location.

BigBOX Allgäu opened on 10 October 2003 on the former site of the Allgäuer Zeitung in central Kempten, next to the Forum Allgäu shopping centre built at almost the same time. It is run by the Feneberg retail family. Since 2008 the city of Kempten has covered half of the hall's annual deficit of about 700,000 euros because of its role as the town hall.

The name bigBOX ALLGÄU combines the English word "box" with the region of Allgäu. The venue opened on 10 October 2003 on the former site of the Allgäuer Zeitung newspaper. Its movable partition wall lets the main hall be reconfigured within twelve hours, and the separate kultBOX below hosts cabaret, theatre and readings.

The main hall can be reconfigured within a maximum of 12 hours, and a movable partition wall lets it be sized to the event. Stage equipment is delivered via a powered loading yard for eight trucks beside the hall, and trucks can also drive through gates directly into the hall. The kultBOX below the main hall seats up to 734 and holds up to 800 standing.

The main hall's ceiling is built to carry a total load of 60 tonnes, and its movable partition to the foyer lets the room shrink or grow with the event. The largest crowd so far was 8,519 people at a Cro concert, followed by 8,500 tickets sold for Die Toten Hosen.
