Theater Amsterdam / Conferences & Events

An iconic event venue by the water, in the heart of Amsterdam's Houthavens. Theater Amsterdam combines the impact of a modern theater with the flexibility of a high-end event venue. With an impressive Auditorium, a fully customizable Blackbox of 1,200 m², a spacious foyer, and video facilities, the venue offers everything for conferences, award shows, product launches, corporate parties, dinners, and public shows. High-quality technology, a 50-meter wide projection screen, and an experienced team ensure that every event feels like a major production. 

Capacity
From exclusive dinners and intimate presentations to large-scale conferences and corporate parties: Theater Amsterdam accommodates events for 100 to approximately 2,000 guests. The theater hall features 1,100 comfortable theater seats with a perfect view of the stage and the impressive projection screen. Additionally, the Blackbox offers 1,200 m² of open floor space for parties, dinners, breakouts, and custom concepts.

Multiple spaces, one powerful event flow

What makes Theater Amsterdam unique is the combination of a full-service approach and a surprising event flow between the different spaces. After an impressive plenary program, keynote, or award show in the theater hall, the gigantic projection screen can open, allowing guests to literally flow backstage to the Blackbox for the next program segment.

The spacious foyer by the water serves as the perfect reception and networking area. Additionally, there are plenty of options for breakouts and side events, both in-house and in collaboration with partner venues such as Vue Houthavens, Club ACE, and The Other Side. From multi-day conferences and product launches to livestreams, public shows, and corporate parties, every event is fully customized.

Culinary experience in-house
Good food and drink are an essential part of the overall event experience at Theater Amsterdam. The catering is fully managed in-house and comes from over 23 years of experience in high-end party catering. From luxurious sit-down dinners and walking dinners to street food concepts and late-night bites: every menu is tailored to the needs. Vegetarian and vegan options are standard parts of the proposals, and sustainability is central to our operations. By managing everything in-house, transport movements are minimized, and quality, hospitality, and flexibility can be maximized.

International-level technology
The technology at Theater Amsterdam is built for impact. The 50-meter wide projection screen, high-quality lighting, sound, and video technology, and the ability to add complete show elements make the venue highly suitable for keynotes, award shows, product presentations, and live entertainment. An experienced technical team collaborates from concept to execution, ensuring that every production runs smoothly and professionally.

Sustainable and future-oriented
Theater Amsterdam is a proud holder of the Golden Green Key certificate. The building itself is an example of circular reuse: originally built for a theater production about the life of Anne Frank and transformed into an event venue after the performances in 2016. Additionally, Theater Amsterdam actively works on reducing food waste, separating waste streams, and no plastic is used during events.

Accessibility
Theater Amsterdam is located directly by the water in the Amsterdam Houthavens and is easily accessible by both car and public transport. From Amsterdam Central Station, you can reach the venue in about 15 minutes and from Sloterdijk station in about 10 minutes. For guests arriving by car, the Minervaparking with approximately 600 parking spaces is within walking distance. Arriving by boat is also an option, a unique way to start an event in a special manner.
