Getting there and practical details

Neighborhood
Weißensee, Berlin

Motorwerk Berlin is a listed industrial hall in Weißensee for conferences, product launches, fashion shows, galas and dinners, with setups from 50 to 1,500 guests. Its main hall offers about 3,500 m2 indoors, ceilings up to 12 metres and daylight windows that can be fully darkened for light and media productions.

Seminars and company events

The main hall is about 90 metres long on the ground floor. For conferences, the venue gives 800 to 1,200 people as the plenary range. Conferences with breakout sessions start from groups of 200 and suit 300 to 500 people. Product presentations typically begin at 200 or 300 guests. Trade fairs and exhibitions can reach several thousand visitors. The venue lists VW, Netflix, Bayer and Telekom among past clients.

Professional technical infrastructure is available through experienced technical partners, though the venue does not publish equipment lists. Delivery zones are large, with loading at ground level, which matters for stands, staging and vehicles on display.

Weddings and receptions

The venue positions itself for company and production events rather than weddings. Get-togethers and receptions can reach 1,500 guests. If you plan a private celebration, ask whether it is accepted.

Rooms and capacities

Beyond the main hall, the site names four breakout rooms: Kopfbau, Pförtnerhaus, Zentralwerkstatt and Loft 408, plus a glass-walled breakout area. A gallery can be used for catering stations. About 5,000 m2 of outdoor space lies on both sides of the hall. Capacity by use, as stated by the venue, is as follows: seated dinners from 300 to 1,000, fashion shows up to 1,000 and get-togethers up to 1,500. Dimensions and capacities of the individual breakout rooms are not published.

Catering

Catering is planned individually for each event. The venue does not name a caterer or describe its kitchen, so ask whether you may bring your own or must use a partner.

History and setting

Electric motors were built on this site about 100 years ago, which explains the name. The hall is protected as a monument and keeps its industrial character. The operator named in the site is AMATA Management GmbH. The venue also states that it uses energy-efficient lighting, planned logistics and regional partners.

Getting there

The site mentions connections to the airport and the main station, shuttles and hotels, without giving routes or travel times. The street address is not shown in the pages read, so request it with your enquiry together with the public transport options.
