About the venue

Organize an event in one of our historical locations in the heart of Leiden: the Leidse Schouwburg, the Stadsgehoorzaal, or Café Caat. With multiple atmospheric halls, an authentic ambiance, and modern facilities, we offer the perfect setting for any type of event. Whether it's a conference, symposium, company party, gathering, or dinner – we ensure an unforgettable experience! 


Stadsgehoorzaal Leiden 
Every year, many (international) conferences take place in the Stadsgehoorzaal. Thanks to the 8 different rooms, there are plenty of options for workshops, break-outs, poster sessions, exhibition floors, and catering. This makes this location very suitable for both small and large events. 
The Grote Zaal is very flexible and can accommodate more than 800 seats. No theater setup? Then all chairs are removed from the hall, creating space for a dining setup or dance floor. 


Leidse Schouwburg 
The Leidse Schouwburg is the oldest theater in the Netherlands (since 1705). The hall, with its red plush, golden ornaments, and unique appearance, provides the perfect backdrop for a presentation, conference, or exclusive performance. A dinner on the stage of the oldest theater in the Netherlands is unforgettable. The Schouwburg hosts theater, dance, and music performances. The Schouwburg welcomes thousands of guests each year for theater, dance, music, and cabaret performances. Nowadays, it is also a popular setting for film shoots, single releases, and livestreams. 


Café Caat 
Café Caat is the cultural hotspot of Leiden! The theater café of the Stadsgehoorzaal, located in the green and hidden Catharinahof, with its modern decor and own terrace, is the ideal location to celebrate something (up to 250 people). 
The locations are within walking distance of each other. Both locations are certified with the Golden Green Key. The Stadsgehoorzaal is situated by the water (backside), right in the center of Leiden, about a 10-minute walk from Leiden Central Station. A unique parking system with free shuttles brings visitors from the parking location Haagweg to the door in just a few minutes.
