Machine room + hangar

The bigger the better

Combine our ground-floor event rooms to your heart's content and take your event to the next level. Ready to party?

Start off the night with a reception in the Atrium and proceed with a seated dinner in the Machine Room. Or would you prefer a seminar in the Machine Room, followed by a reception in the Atrium? All is possible. Our events team helps you lay the puzzle for your event and makes sure everything flows together flawlessly.

The Atrium transforms from an entrance hall into an extension of our beautiful heritage rooms in the blink of an eye. Fully privatised, of course.

De Hoorn takes care of your entire event, from request to invoice. Our young and dynamic team is ready to help you plan and organise everything. With our expertise, all you have to do is enjoy yourself.

Nice to know: the Machine Room, Atrium and Hangar blend together nicely on the ground floor. You can also easily add the Brewing Room for a smaller reception.
