Meetings & conferences
Centralværkstedet is an urban meeting, conference and party venue, capable of hosting the really big events - either for a day or for a longer period of time. In essence, an experience house. The venue has preserved the raw atmosphere from the old workshop buildings, differentiating itself from other large and common conference centers.
Centralværkstedet has room for 900 in a cinema setup and 150 in Smedien. But both places' flexible options make it possible to screen off as needed, allowing for unlimited opportunities and intimacy. The venue copious amounts of natural light and acces to the enclosed courtyard.
