3Square Zwijnaarde rents meeting rooms and event halls for business gatherings of 2 to 250 people. There are four rooms: two small boardrooms, a hall for up to 130 guests and a hall for up to 250. The venue sits in Zwijnaarde, a district on the edge of Ghent, in a modern business complex close to the E40 and E17 motorways.
Seminars and company events
Rijvissche is the room for seminars, workshops, trainings and product presentations. It takes 15 to 130 people on 200 square meters and has an outdoor terrace with a drinks bar and a sofa corner for breaks. L'echo is the largest room, with 30 to 250 people on 250 square meters. It comes with a projector and large screen (HDMI or wireless), a laptop, a sound system, a microphone and a headset, plus air conditioning.
Rooms are rented by the half day or the full day. A sales contact handles the booking from the first request until after the event, which keeps a seminar with several rooms under one point of contact.
Rooms and capacities
Times seats 2 to 12 people on 30 square meters. Telegraaf seats 2 to 16 around a large oval table. Both boardrooms have a TV screen for projection with an HDMI or wireless connection, a Polycom camera for video conferences, a flip chart, a coffee machine and air conditioning. Rijvissche and L'echo can be combined with the boardrooms when a program needs plenary sessions and small working groups on the same day. The venue also describes breakout and training spaces for workshops and brainstorming sessions. The official site states that every room can be arranged flexibly to the organizer's wishes, with the needed technology already installed.
Catering
Catering is supplied through the partner Smeul and other local partners. The menu covers a reception buffet, coffee breaks, breakfast, lunches, walking dinners, seated dinners and longer receptions. In L'echo, food can be served in the room behind a soundproof curtain for groups under 120 people. Larger groups, above 120, are served in Rijvissche. The detailed offer is in the venue's brochure.
Getting there
The venue is next to the E40 and E17 and close to Flanders Expo. Parking is large, with underground and above-ground spaces and charging points for electric cars. The street lies in a local traffic zone, so drivers should check the access instructions before the event. The rooms are in a business complex, with daylight and a quiet working atmosphere.
