Faculty Club hosts seminars, congresses, staff parties, team buildings, receptions and weddings in the Groot Begijnhof of Leuven, with 19 named rooms and a largest hall that seats 260 in theater layout. The venue sits inside a UNESCO-protected site and has its own sales team, catering and restaurant.

Seminars and company events

Business events are a core offer. The official site lists seminars, congresses, staff parties and team buildings, and mentions more than two decades of experience in corporate events. A sales team tailors layout and menu to each request, and a host named Customer Delight Host is the single point of contact on the day, welcoming guests and following the program.

On request, the team arranges hotel reservations for multi-day events, cultural outings or team activities, shuttle service and transport, audiovisual support and adapted catering. Meeting rooms are described as renovated, with flexible room setups, modern equipment, fast internet and a large car park. A typical meeting day ends with a walking dinner after a coffee break service.

Weddings and receptions

The site also sells weddings and parties with friends and family, in historic halls and a green inner garden. It carries a House of Weddings award badge. The same rooms serve receptions, lunches and dinners, and the request form lists meetings, lunch or dinner, reception and wedding as event types.
