Who are we?

Are you planning an event in Amsterdam and are looking for a unique event venue? A venue that inspires and motivates, with preferably slightly more to offer than your average event venue? It’s very likely that we are just what you are looking for. The Beurs van Berlage is actually one of Amsterdam’s most in-demand conference venues. Originally designed as a trading exchange, following renovations in which no expense or effort were spared, the building has been transformed into an ideal venue for conferences, trade shows and business events. 

The Beurs van Berlage is an appealing and inspiring venue for almost any event imaginable. Consider, for example, a conference or symposium where you can welcome up to 1,300 guests. Thanks to our wide experience in hosting international events, we can provide excellent advice on appropriate rooms and arrangements. We will work with you to guarantee your guests an evening they will not easily forget. Feel the excitement of the stock market traders in the Grote Zaal, experience the hectic pace in the Effectenbeurszaal and imagine the smell of the fresh incoming grain in the Graanbeurszaal. Discover the possibilities for your conference or event in one of these beautiful rooms! 

If you organise an event with us, you have a choice of various historic halls and rooms. For truly major events, we can even open up the whole building for you. We won’t beat around the bush: we believe the Beurs van Berlage to be one of the best event centres in the Netherlands. Its location at the heart of Amsterdam, the monumental building, the high-end facilities, our experience… we believe there are few able to match them. If you invite your guests to the Beurs van Berlage, they will leave your event with an unforgettable impression.

With at least thirty-five international conferences a year, the Beurs van Berlage has been the place to be for international conferences and symposia for years. The monumental building in the centre of Amsterdam offers visitors the ultimate Amsterdam experience. Together with the excellent facilities it is the perfect formula for a successful symposium or conference. The place where breakthrough developments are presented, new products are launched and fresh ideas that impact tomorrow arise. 

Are you the host and organiser of a scientific congress? Then we’re glad to discuss your ideas and wishes. If desired, we can put you in touch with a PCO (Professional Congress Organizer). We like to bring PCOs into contact with scientists from different fields of study. Our intensive cooperation with Amsterdam&partner helps you promote the location to an international audience. We also help with the creation of a professional bid book.  

Are you looking for a suitable meeting location to get together with your personnel, or are you organising a (shareholders) meeting? One that has excellent facilities and inspires participants? A location that is flexible and thinks about various options when times require this? Then the Beurs van Berlage is a first-class choice. The magnificent building from 1903, a highlight of H.P. Berlage's oeuvre, is a meeting location that is fully equipped to take care of catering, decoration and technology, so that you can concentrate on matters that are really important to you: your guests and the content of the meeting. Of course we are happy to think along and advise you about the possibilities. 

The Beurs van Berlage breathes history and character. It was already a bustling trading place in 1903. Today it’s a one in a million conference location in the warm heart of Amsterdam, with high quality and service, an impressive atmosphere and excellent facilities. A fantastic location that you’ll never forget! The Beurs van Berlage has been an international hotspot with charm since 1903. A building of grandeur. But also 'the place to be' in the soul of Amsterdam where special things happen every day. World-class events, fairs, expositions and conferences. 

Amsterdam has a lot to offer. As one of the most iconic capitals of Europe it is a magnificent setting for international conferences. The ICCA (International Congress and Convention Association) has declared it one of the most innovative congress cities in the world! What makes Amsterdam so special? It’s open minded, unique and a bit stubborn. Full of initiatives, like the many innovative start-ups that are established here. Moreover, the economic climate in Amsterdam is stable and the capital ranks high in the global safety index. The open, entrepreneurial and dynamic vibe of Amsterdam comes together in the core of the city: the Beurs van Berlage.  

Imagine the following: Narrow houses that exude history through their crooked and diverse constructions. Wandering along the romantic canals, you cross a bridge here and there, each with a different story. But you also see and feel innovation and energy. Modern districts, hip cafes and exuberant festivals. A metropolis full of history, vibrant culture and an open mind. Isn’t that the perfect setting for your conference or event? 

You probably still have unanswered questions. Such as “what are the options for my conference or event?", “What are the hybrid options in the Beurs van Berlage" of “What are the associated costs?" and “What else can I do to make it a success?" Our specialists are happy to help you with these and all your other questions. We promise to turn your conference or event into an unforgettable experience and a guaranteed success!
