La Fabrik is a former industrial complex in Herstal, near Liège, converted into six event spaces on two levels with 6,000 m² in total. Organizers can book it for seminars, conferences, trade fairs, company meals, receptions and weddings. The largest hall, L'Atelier, states figures of up to 1,400 people.
Seminars and company events
The venue lists seminars, corporate events and company meals, conferences and trade fairs among the events it hosts. The buildings suit large formats. L'Atelier is 94 meters long with a ceiling that reaches 12 meters, and an overhead crane runs along its full length, so you can set the size of the room to match your event. The hall is already fitted with screens and projectors.
For a smaller conference, Le Théâtre covers 280 m² and states figures of 300, 400 and 200 people. Groups that need a quieter format can use the brasserie, FABRIK's Café, which makes its rooms available for meetings in a smaller group and serves a set lunch menu each week.
The team can also arrange the practical side of a business day. Hosts, stewards, bartenders and security staff can be found for you. On the technical side, the venue can organize projection, live broadcast, a stage, sound, lighting, a photographer or a camera operator. A decoration service advises on a custom layout.
Weddings and receptions
Receptions, cocktails, weddings, communions and baptisms are all on the list of events. The venue can supply furniture, decoration, sound and lighting equipment, a musician and video, and it follows the event from start to finish. Le Quai (600 m²) and FirstFloor (840 m²) give mid-sized and large groups room to hold a dinner and a dance floor in separate zones of the same site.
Rooms and capacities
Each space is listed with three figures. The site does not label them, so ask which figure applies to a seated dinner, a standing reception and a conference layout.
L'Atelier: 1,192 m², figures of 1,000, 1,400 and 800 people. Le Théâtre: 280 m², figures of 300, 400 and 200. Le Quai: 600 m², figures of 250, 500 and 300. FirstFloor: 840 m², figures of 800, 1,200 and 600.
Step-free access for people with reduced mobility is listed for L'Atelier, Le Théâtre and Le Quai. The technical sheet for L'Atelier also lists heating, parking and the option of Wi-Fi.
Catering
A partner caterer prepares the food. The venue describes options such as drinks, a walking dinner or a gastronomic meal. For everyday lunches in a small group, the brasserie offers a weekly menu.
Getting there
La Fabrik stands at Rue Pierre-Joseph Antoine 79/E in Herstal. The site has a car park of 400 spaces. The venue notes that this area can also hold a marquee or an animation during your event.
