MAAT Central Tejo, the former Tejo Power Station, rents its halls and terraces for conferences, seminars, breakfasts, dinners, cocktails and brand launches. Capacities run from 80 seated in a daylight hall to 500 standing on the roof. The site is on Avenida Brasília in Belém, Lisbon, on the bank of the Tagus, and belongs to the MAAT museum of art, architecture and technology.
Seminars and company events
The museum's corporate offer covers brand and business activations, conferences, breakfast meetings and dinners, as well as concerts, markets and product or service launches, indoors or outdoors. The Sala dos Geradores is the main hall for a plenary: 270 m² under a large iron and brick structure, with a view of the Tagus and audiovisual equipment, seating up to 160 or 250 for a standing format. The Sala dos Condensadores, on the ground floor with natural light, seats 80 or takes 150 standing, and is often paired with the Geradores for breakout sessions or a reception.
Events can run outside the museum's public opening hours, subject to authorization and an approved logistics plan. A technical visit can be arranged before you book.
Weddings and receptions
The official corporate page does not offer weddings. Social events are limited to corporate dinners, cocktails and receptions, so for private celebrations ask the venue team before planning.
Rooms and capacities
The Praça do Carvão is an open square facing the river, with a central area and room for stages and sets: up to 450 standing. The Sala das Caldeiras is a 350 m² hall with a 16 m ceiling, best for cocktails, at up to 100 standing. It is available only after the museum closes to the public at 7 p.m. and on Tuesdays.
On the MAAT Gallery side, the main exhibition area covers 1,000 m². Its capacity is given on request, because it is an exhibition space and some event types are restricted. The Cobertura, a rooftop terrace with a view of the river and Belém, holds up to 500 standing. The front façade toward the Tagus can serve as a backdrop for a promotion or a product campaign.
Catering
The museum can recommend certified suppliers for catering, decoration and technical production. There is no exclusive caterer, but the team prefers partners that respect the technical and heritage conditions of the buildings. Basic equipment may be included in the rental depending on the space, and additional equipment is hired separately.
History and setting
The Central Tejo is a historic power station beside the river, and its halls keep the industrial structures that now frame events. The MAAT Gallery is the museum's newer building next to it, and the outdoor MAAT Garden surrounds both.
Getting there
The venue stands at Avenida Brasília, 1300-598 Lisbon, in the Belém district. Send requests to the events address given on the museum's corporate events page.
