A successful event starts with the right venue. Whether you are organising a meeting, seminar, kick-off or reception, the venue should not only offer enough space, but also suit your programme and be well organised from a practical point of view.
SCALA Meeting & Event Center in Ghent combines flexible meeting and event spaces, catering, Brasserie STROOM, three international hotels and ample parking facilities on one site. In addition, SCALA Meeting & Event Center is located at Akkerhage, strategically positioned near the intersection of the E40 and E17 motorways.
Choose an event venue that suits your programme
The number of guests is an important starting point, but it is not the only factor to consider. A meeting for 20 participants requires a different setting than a conference, reception or corporate event for several hundred guests.
SCALA Meeting & Event Center offers 10 flexible meeting and event spaces for events of up to 350 guests, depending on the chosen set-up.
The spaces are suitable for, among others:
- Meetings and business meetings
- Seminars and training sessions
- Corporate events and conferences
- Workshops and breakout sessions
- Receptions, dinners and private events
Several spaces can be combined within one programme. For example, you can start with a plenary session, continue in smaller breakout rooms and conclude with a reception or dinner.

Meetings, catering and Brasserie STROOM in one location
An event usually involves more than just the meeting or presentation itself. Welcome moments, coffee breaks, lunch, receptions and dinner are often an integral part of the programme.
SCALA Meeting & Event Center offers various catering options that can be tailored to the type of event, the number of participants and the schedule of the day.
Brasserie STROOM is also located on the same site and is ideal for a business lunch, informal meeting, dinner with colleagues or a relaxed end to a meeting or corporate event.
This allows guests to meet, have lunch, dine and network without the need for additional transfers.

Three hotels and 405 rooms on the same site
For multi-day residential seminars, international meetings or events with guests travelling from further afield, having accommodation on the same site is a major advantage.
Three international hotels with a total of 405 rooms are located on the same site:
Courtyard by Marriott Ghent – 174 rooms
Holiday Inn Express & Suites Ghent – 126 rooms
Residence Inn by Marriott Ghent – 105 rooms
This allows participants to combine their meeting, event, restaurant visit and overnight stay in one location in Ghent.
For organisers, this also means less logistics to manage: no separate transfers between the event venue, restaurant and hotel.

Strategically located near the E40 and E17 in Ghent
Accessibility is an important factor when choosing a meeting or event venue, especially when participants are travelling from different parts of Belgium or from abroad.
SCALA Meeting & Event Center is located at Akkerhage in Ghent, close to the intersection of the E40 and E17 motorways. This makes the venue easily accessible from, among others, Zaventem, Brussels, Antwerp, Bruges and Kortrijk.
The site also offers 250 parking spaces, including 40 charging points for electric vehicles.
SCALA Meeting & Event Center is also accessible by public transport. For certain connections and corporate locations, an additional corporate shuttle can be provided.
Technical and practical support
