We have organized a fantastic event in the heart of Rotterdam for the staff of the Franciscus Gasthuis & Vlietland. The atmosphere was good, the music was great and the ambiance of the Laurenskerk brought everything together perfectly. The Laurenskerk is not only an impressive monument, but also a wonderful event location for a very good party. Thank you for the great cooperation and see you at the next event!

"Trust the professionals to do what they do best!" We recently celebrated our 50th anniversary in the beautiful Laurenskerk with about 500 guests, and it was the perfect location! The communication went smoothly and thanks to the smooth cooperation between all parties, we soon had full confidence in the entire process. The team really took care of everything, so we could fully enjoy the moment. An absolute must!
