DUS in Utrecht hosts meetings, training days, workshops, hybrid events and company parties. The official site lists about 25 rooms at Sophialaan 1, from boardrooms for 12 people to a hall for up to 320, so groups of 15 or of 300 can both find a fitting space.
Seminars and company events
The site presents DUS first as a place for business events: meetings, congresses, trainings, workshops, hybrid events and company parties. Each room is listed with a maximum capacity and the layouts it supports, such as theatre, cabaret, U-shape, boardroom, classroom, circle and carré.
The largest room, Ruimte 14, takes up to 320 people. Ruimte 21 holds up to 130, and Ruimte 1 (with its parts 1A and 1B) holds up to 115. Ruimte 11 holds up to 96. For a plenary session followed by breakouts, the mid-sized rooms help: Ruimte 4, 5 and 8 each take up to 56, and Ruimte 23 takes up to 63.
Rooms and capacities
Small rooms suit board meetings and working groups. Ruimte 3 seats 14 in boardroom layout and Ruimte 6 seats 12. Ruimte 15, 16 and 17 each take up to 15, and Ruimte 9 and 10 take up to 24. Ruimte 19 and 20 take up to 32, Ruimte 22 up to 35, Ruimte 24 up to 49 and Ruimte 25 up to 44. The site gives no floor areas, so ask for plans when the layout is tight.
Beyond standard rooms, the site mentions Loods A and Loods B, the Speelkwartier and a tram that was added recently as a space for creative sessions. Other features named on the site include a brainstorm pool (babbelbad), a curling lane and tree-trunk seating meant for meetings. A sketch-style floor plan dated 2025 is linked from the rooms page.
Catering
Catering is described as creative and sustainable, built on familiar ingredients served in unexpected ways. One example given is a poké bowl presented as if it came from a toy train. A sharing dinner in the Speelkwartier is also mentioned. The Speelkwartier has indoor and outdoor areas, a quay by the water, jeu de boules, beach volleyball, giant Jenga and a board game corner, which gives a group room for an informal break between sessions. The site does not say whether outside caterers are allowed.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings and private celebrations are not mentioned on the official site, which focuses on company use. Organisers planning a private party should ask the team directly.
