Festihallen in Skanderborg, Denmark, hosts company parties, conferences, seminars, team-building days and private celebrations in one large indoor hall. The hall seats 200 diners or holds 350 standing guests, and an added tent takes seated dinners beyond 500. Events start from 60 guests. The operator supplies the kitchen, the bar, the stage technology and an event coordinator.
Seminars and company events
Organisers can book Festihallen for a board meeting, a one-day conference, a multi-day seminar, a sales kick-off, a summer party or a Christmas lunch. The setting is a festival-style hall with beech trees, a high ceiling, a VIP lounge and a stage, so a plenary session and an evening party can run in the same space. Sound and lighting are handled by in-house technicians, who can equip speeches and panel debates with microphones as well as full music productions.
The venue also books entertainment for company evenings: DJs, live bands, stand-up, fireworks and other acts. Meeting days can be bought as set packages. There is a morning meeting from 8:00 a.m. to noon, and lunch formats from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. with sandwiches, smørrebrød or a lunch plate. Packages cover room set-up, table laying, clearing, washing up, water, coffee and tea, notepads and pencils, and a Festihallen host throughout the day. The morning meeting and the sandwich lunch are sold from 30 guests, the smørrebrød lunch from 40.
Weddings and receptions
Festihallen also takes weddings, birthday parties, anniversaries, confirmations, student parties and themed parties. As with company events, private parties start from 60 guests. The team adapts menu and decoration to the couple's wishes, and styling, DJ, live music and a bar are available. An event coordinator answers enquiries sent through the form on the site, which asks for the occasion, the date and the expected number of guests.
Rooms and capacities
The venue is built around one main hall. It seats 200 guests for dinner and holds 350 standing guests for concerts, receptions and cocktail formats. With the additional tent attached, seated dinners can pass 500 guests. The hall has a stage and a VIP lounge. The official site describes no separate breakout rooms, so ask the team how a seminar with parallel sessions would be laid out.
Accommodation
The site lists no bedrooms on the premises. Guests stay in hotels in the area, and the venue works with a local transport partner that carries groups to the door and back to their hotel after the event.
Catering
Food comes from the in-house kitchen and its chef, who cooks under the name Louises Private Dining. Menus are adapted to each event, from a lunch buffet during a conference to a full dinner. Several bars staffed by professional bartenders serve drinks during parties and receptions.
History and setting
Festihallen was built in 2021 as an event and live-music venue. It also stages concerts and stand-up shows for ticket buyers, so the team is used to large crowds, stage production and backstage management. The building stands at Sverigesvej 18 in Skanderborg, in Central Jutland.
Getting there
The address is Sverigesvej 18, 8660 Skanderborg. Organisers can arrange coach transport through the venue's local partner for guests staying in town. Ask the team about parking for self-driving delegates.
