About

The CORPUS Congress Centre, with its distinctive design of a seated human figure, makes a striking and inspirational first impression on its visitors. Beyond its robust exterior, CORPUS embodies a world-unique concept that celebrates the marvels of the human body and promotes its well-being, resonating with every individual.

Located at the heart of the Leiden Bio Science Park, the CORPUS Congress Centre boasts a range of versatile venues. The lounge, a spacious, 450m2 area with a soaring 7-meter ceiling, features a modern bar and a sunny terrace. This bright, central hub is ideal for catering, networking, or taking a break. Adjacent to the lounge is the crown jewel of the centre: a large 568m2 conference hall. Perfectly suited for sessions of up to 540 attendees, this hall can be swiftly adapted to accommodate 300 participants with additional breakout rooms.

On the 8th floor, you'll find a penthouse offering breathtaking panoramic views of the Dutch coastline. This airy 90m2 space can host up to 60 attendees, whether for a theater-style presentation or a dinner arrangement. If you're eyeing a cozy venue for a workshop or a casual get-together, the penthouse is an excellent choice.

What's more, the CORPUS Congress Centre allows attendees to embark on a 'journey through the human.' This immersive experience acquaints guests with the wonders of their own bodies, ensuring an unforgettable event.

NEW!

For an event that truly stands out, consider booking the entire CORPUS facility! This means exclusive access to the entire building. Besides the conference halls, you can utilize six interactive rooms and spaces from the 'journey through the human' as additional breakout areas.

Whether you're hosting large-scale gatherings, intimate meetings, or parties, the CORPUS Congress Centre excels in catering. We offer top-notch in-house options and a curated list of external caterers to nourish the body during your event. Plus, with our comprehensive audiovisual support managed by either our team or expert partners, you're in good hands.

Question & Answer

Here you will find practical information about the location.

  • CORPUS has a parking garage with 110 parking spaces. The parking fee is set at €7.50 per vehicle (€6.20 excluding VAT). For business events, we operate a system based on parking passes, charged per usage. You will only be billed for passes that are actually used. Should your guests pay for their own parking costs, they can purchase their pass at the reception desk. If our car park is full, we will secure additional parking in nearby locations. We will be sure to keep you informed ahead of time and will handle all logistical arrangements. For larger events, we will gladly provide parking attendants to welcome your guests and guide them to the appropriate parking spaces. The cost for a parking attendant is €29.50 p.p.p.h. The minimum requirement is 4 hours per attendant. Given the ongoing construction activities in the Leiden Bio Science Park, we will assess the situation for each event and devise a tailored plan accordingly.
