Alma Park in Gelsenkirchen hosts company events, team days, meetings and receptions for groups from 10 to 5,000 people. It is an indoor leisure park of about 15,000 square meters in the Ruhr area, so a program does not depend on the weather. Organisers can combine activities with a private room, catering and a branded setting, all in one building.
Seminars and company events
The park sells company parties, team building, trainee days, Christmas parties, meetings and company or product presentations. A program can mix karting, laser tag, escape rooms, paintball, virtual reality, trampolines, axe throwing and adventure golf with time in a private event room. An experienced team handles the organization from start to finish, and company branding can be integrated on site. A bus shuttle is possible for groups arriving together.
Two ways of booking exist. Companies can book an online company activity pass on weekdays between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Or they can send an individual request, in which case date, time, activities and event areas are chosen freely and combined.
Weddings and receptions
The park lists weddings among the events its locations can host, next to birthdays, company celebrations and conferences. The site does not describe a dedicated wedding package, so couples should ask the team which room and which services are available for the date they have in mind.
Rooms and capacities
Five event locations are offered. Stollen A, B and C hold 50 to 250 guests, with their own bar, conference and banquet seating, a projector and a sound system. Grube is a closed-off area for about 25 guests with flexible seating, a short route to the bar, and a table football and dart machine. Lichtloch is a similar room for 35 guests. The beer garden has space for more than 100 people.
For larger gatherings, the artificial turf pitches can take up to 500 participants, and the park states that events with several thousand guests have been run in the hall. The smaller rooms suit workshops, briefings and dinners after an activity block.
Catering
Food and drink come from the park's own sports bar and gastronomy area. For stays lasting a full day, the park offers catering and food trucks with catering concepts adapted to the group. Group menus are published on the website, and the team can plan menus to match the program.
History and setting
The park presents itself as the largest indoor leisure park in Europe. It offers 19 attractions on the site, and the name of its event rooms, Stollen, Grube and Lichtloch, refers to the mining past of the Ruhr region.

Alma Park is at Almastraße 39 in Gelsenkirchen, in the center of the Ruhr area. The park says it is quickly reached from Essen, Bochum, Dortmund, Recklinghausen and Duisburg. It is open every day of the year from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., and a bus shuttle can be arranged for groups.
