Kermis op de Basis - Park Vliegbasis Soesterberg

800 m2 space for inspiration, innovation and creative disruption at Park Vliegbasis Soesterberg
Looking for a centrally located venue in the Netherlands for meetings, company outings, workshops, brainstorming sessions or other events? Come to Kermis op de Basis! This unique location is situated at Park Vliegbasis Soesterberg. At this historic airbase, you can host groups in a shelter of 800 square meters. The location is nestled in a beautiful nature reserve of the Utrechts Landschap and is just a 5-minute drive from the A28. A unique place where heritage, technology, creativity, and nature come together.

Park Vliegbasis Soesterberg is a historic airbase and now has the status of a protected nature reserve. One of the former aircraft shelters has been converted into an inspiring and interactive space for meetings, workshops, training sessions, and company parties.

An interactive and artistic fair as an inspiring environment for your event
This venue is based on a special concept. In the shelter, there are various fairground attractions from the award-winning project 'De Koude Kermis' by media design collective DROPSTUFF MEDIA in collaboration with various museums and museum collections. In this project, the different fairground attractions are always connected to the stories of tomorrow, the imagination of creative processes, and the wonder of new technological possibilities. It provides the perfect starting point for dissecting problems and opportunities and developing new ideas. In this completely unique ‘new media playground’, your guests can, for example, experience the possibilities of immersive media such as Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, or artificial intelligence. The location thus forms the perfect starting point and context for, for example, joint innovation or transformation processes.

Meeting and presenting in the shelter
The shelter is equipped with a large central transparent 'dome' tent and also has smaller spaces for break-out sessions. We are happy to collaborate with you on the goals of your day and the options for speakers, moderators, workshop formats, and technical possibilities. And with the standard facilities such as audio-visual equipment, lighting, tables, chairs, and flipcharts, you know you have a perfect base for your meeting. For catering, we offer a quality selection of fresh coffee/tea, snacks and drinks, lunch, brunch, drinks reception, and dinner options. We would be happy to provide you with a tailored offer in collaboration with our caterer.

Time for a break... into nature!
At this location, you can take your break in a beautiful nature area in the perfect way. We offer special walking and cycling tours around the airbase, possibly guided by a guide from the Utrechts Landschap. Highly appreciated by guests who have already visited Kermis op de Basis!
