Other events

Endless possibilities

The possibilities for organising events in our venue are endless. From a grand wedding to an exclusive film premiere or glamorous product launch.

We are an official wedding location. The grandeur of our impressive Marble Hall offers the perfect décor for that one special day! And our Queen Máxima Hall is with 452 fixed seats very well suited for all sorts of spotlight moments, talks or presentations. Also, we love to roll out the red carpet for film premieres, theatre productions or a documentary festival. Besides, our characteristic building with its grandiose halls is an awesome film set or photo location. We facilitate large plenary sessions, seminars or symposia and have smaller rooms for workshops, trainings, readings or discussions. The inspiring surroundings makes sure that your guests, not only enjoy the event they are attending, but are also able to soak in the heritage and culture of the building.
