HoogtIJ is an event venue at Johan van Hasseltweg 39 in Amsterdam Noord that hosts company parties, product launches, dinners, meetings and weddings for up to 275 guests. Five spaces can be used alone or combined into one evening, with views over the IJ and the Amsterdam skyline.
Seminars and company events
The venue lists meetings, product launches, networking drinks, staff parties, year-end parties, anniversaries and seated dinners among its formats. De Gym can be hired on its own for a team meeting, a seminar, a brainstorm, a training or a workshop. The team builds each event around the client, and the spaces are set up and changed over to suit the program.
For a company party or year-end event, the venue suggests moving guests through several spaces during one evening: a reception in the glass greenhouse, a dinner with a view of the city, then a party. Parties can run until 03:00. Technical equipment includes party lighting, a sound system, screens for presentations or visuals, microphones, speaker sets and fast WiFi.
Weddings and receptions
HoogtIJ presents itself as a wedding and event location, with a dedicated page for weddings. De Oranje Toren is described as a place for a theatrical entrance, a reception with a view or a glass of champagne. The venue also names rooftop receptions and private dinners among its formats.
