Checklist for the perfect location for your event

It sounds logical, but it is often underestimated: does your event fit the size and layout of the venue? Don't just consider the number of seats or square metres, but also flexibility. How easy is it to switch between a plenary session, break-out programme and an informal closing event? Look for the 'perfect match' that grows with your programme.

At the Midden Nederland Hallen, you can choose from three unique 'worlds': the Event Greenhouse, the Theatre Hall and the Event Hall. This diversity allows you to give each session its own atmosphere. The rooms are fully scalable, allowing you to effortlessly grow from 200 to as many as 10,000 guests.

An event is only successful if your guests can get there easily. Check accessibility by car and public transport, and look at parking facilities. Centrally located venues are often more attractive for national events. How nice is it when visitors can park without detours and find their way quickly? This contributes to a relaxed start to your event.

A location that is centrally located and easily accessible via major roads is ideal. The Midden Nederland Hallen are located directly on the A1 and A30 motorways, allowing guests from all over the country to arrive without detours. In addition, there are 1,500 parking spaces, including charging stations, right next to the entrance. The location is also easily accessible by public transport thanks to the bus stop in front of the door and the station only 2 kilometres away. This ensures that your event starts in a relaxed and efficient manner for every visitor.

From light and sound to live streams and LED screens: technology largely determines the experience and can literally amplify your message on the big stage. Ask what facilities are available as standard and whether experienced technicians are on hand to help. A good venue can take a lot of the hassle out of organising your event and saves you from having to arrange separate suppliers yourself.

All rooms at the Midden Nederland Hallen are fully turnkey equipped: lighting, sound, furniture, technology and styling are all ready for you, so you can focus on the content of your programme. Since the recent renovation of the Event Hall, you also have access to a king-size LED screen on the main stage, ideal for impressive visuals, keynotes and hybrid productions. Everything is in place to make your event effortless and maximise its impact!

Food and drink are among the most important factors for the success of your event; they can make or break it. Ask about the catering options and pay attention to sustainability: more and more guests appreciate local and circular concepts. Choose catering that suits your programme: are you going for energetic brain food that provides energy and concentration between sessions, or are you opting for a shared dinner that encourages connection and interaction? With the right catering, you add experience and meaning to your event!

Fresh, local, tasty and surprising: that's the catering at an event at the Midden Nederland Hallen! We have a food book full of delicious, local inspiration and bring the food directly from the land to your event. Want to know more about this sustainable catering? Read about it in this blog!

Sustainability has become an integral part of events. Choose a venue that consciously invests in green energy, circular catering, and smart waste management. This way, you contribute to a better world and meet the expectations of your guests.

The Midden Nederland Hallen complex is completely energy neutral, with thousands of solar panels, thermal energy storage and circular catering with our Orbisk. This makes it not only a sustainable choice, but also a future-proof one.

Every event has its own character. Ask yourself: does the look and feel of the venue suit my event? An industrial hall creates a different atmosphere than a greenhouse filled with daylight or a theatre with creative setups. The right environment can boost your visitors' energy and immediately make your programme more powerful. Choose the atmosphere that reinforces your goal.

A professional event venue actively considers your wishes. Ask about the level of support: can you count on an experienced team, on-site technicians and styling? This saves time, money and stress during the preparations. A venue team that works well together feels like an extension of your own organisation. Exactly what you need for large or complex events!

The Midden Nederland Hallen meets all the points on the checklist and also offers the right atmosphere and experience for your event. But ultimately, it is also important that the location feels right. At Midden Nederland Hallen, you can easily schedule a site visit via the contact form on our website.
