About

In the vibrant heart of Alkmaar stands a location that breathes history and makes an impression: the Great St. Lawrence Church. This Gothic masterpiece from the 15th century is not only an icon of the city, but also a versatile and surprisingly modern event venue.

With a freely divisible floor of no less than 2,500 m², a stylish medieval ambiance, and extensive technical facilities, the church is ideal for conferences, fairs, symposiums, dinners, concerts, lectures, product presentations, and more. From intimate to grand – everything is possible.

History and high-tech hand in hand
The impressive space is equipped with, among other things, 220V and 380V connections, heating, mobile stage parts, flexible panel walls, curtain partitions, a professional lighting and sound system, and even connections for TV recordings and mobile kitchens. The appearance is monumental, while the experience is contemporary.

Professional team with theater knowledge
Behind this special location is an experienced and dedicated team, part of Theater De Vest, located directly across from the church. Thanks to this unique connection, you benefit from expertise in event organization, stage technology, theater productions, and audience guidance. Your event is in good hands – from the first idea to the final spotlight.

Perfectly accessible – centrally located in the city
Just 30 minutes from Schiphol and with four parking garages and the station within walking distance, accessibility is guaranteed. Within a few steps, you are in the middle of one of the most characterful locations in North Holland.

The Great St. Lawrence Church: a unique setting for those looking for something a little extra.
