We’re kicking off our guide with a visit to jolly old Westerpark. This casual and airy venue exists in a refurbished industrial landscape set in one of Amsterdam’s best parks.

You and your guests can relax with homely furniture and delicate trees around you while you marvel at the former gashouse buildings before you.

It spreads out over 190m2 and can accommodate up to 200 guests in a standing function and 100 in a private dining or theatre set-up.

Way up at the top of an 80m tall building, you have the chance to lounge like you’re in paradise. This versatile rooftop terrace is built to keep you happy all year round too.

We love the versatility of this venue. It’s fully operational all year round reflecting the best elements of the seasons. In the summer you can lounge up here with cocktails, and in the colder months, there are ice rinks to enjoy!

It’s located next to the expansive Rembrandt Park in West Amsterdam. And thanks to panoramic views, your guests will get to enjoy it all.

And don’t forget, there’s an on-site bar, catering service, and an attentive team of staff to tend to your every whim.

Smack-bang right in the middle of this historic city is this historic private garden. It’s beautifully hidden away from all the tourists and madness of the city centre.

The architecture is typical of the townhouse mansions from Amsterdam’s golden age in the 17th-century. In immaculate condition, it’s a historical environment for an after-work event.

Its grandeur lends itself to intimate cocktail receptions, private dinners, or classy after-work drinks in Amsterdam.

For a standing capacity, it can hold up to 200 people. If you’d prefer a seated layout, it can hold up to 175 people.

It’s got a precious wooden floor, a lavish terrace, funky lights, and of course, some beautiful plants and flowers.

It’s located in Amsterdam Noord (North). It’s a short ferry ride from Central Station, or a shorter drive or metro ride through the tunnel, whichever you prefer.

And finally, this great big greenhouse has a maximum capacity of 100 people.

We’re flying you back to the north for this huge outdoor space. It features a large, sophisticated veranda to protect you from the ever-threatening Lowlands rain.

It’s a custom-built semi-permanent indoor structure. The window panels are crystal clear, and the black finish on the metal structure gives it a sleek look.

Your guests will love the plush greenery sprawling around them and the retro gym-hall flooring.

You’ll be surrounded by lush greenery and open space. It’s a true outdoor venue at heart and can be fitted to suit all manner of events. After-work events are just the beginning!

If you would prefer to host your event in a more homely place, might we suggest this stylish kitchen event space?

It looks like it’s fallen straight out the pages of Vogue magazine. Its semi-conservatory feel is a joy for the eyes and is great for that precious natural light.

The decor is a vision of modernist white and blues, and the garden is an interior courtyard that is beautifully tiled and well decorated with wooden furniture and hearty plants.

Anyone that knows Amsterdam will tell you that Vondelpark is its greatest park and that Oud Zuid (Old South) is its grandest area. Well, here is a lovely outdoor space that inhabits both.

It’s set in a bold and classical building that radiates elegance. The indoor space is porous with the outdoor patio thanks to its large window-doors.

It will sit 16 people for your private dining experience. The furniture is refined and elegant too!
