MS Riverstar is a moored event ship on the Rhine in Düsseldorf, used for company parties, trade fair evenings, seminars and weddings. The salon seats up to 160 guests and the ship takes a maximum of 250 people. It lies opposite the south entrance of Messe Düsseldorf, at Rotterdamer Straße 122.
Seminars and company events
The ship is aimed at business guests as well as private parties. The team lists company parties, trade fair events and seminars, and plans the evening with the organizer, including the program, food and music. Because the berth faces the south entrance of the exhibition center, it works for client evenings during fairs, when exhibitors want to host guests close to the halls.
The salon is air-conditioned and fitted with modern technology, according to the operator. Staff serve guests from the background, so the event can run without interruption. The ship is described as an event location with flexible opening hours. Someone is not always on board, so book a viewing by email or phone to see it before you decide.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings, birthdays and private parties are sold on the same ship. The operator offers a tailored package for weddings on the Rhine and prepares a buffet on board. A deck plan covers the lower deck, the salon deck and the upper deck, which helps to plan a ceremony, a dinner and a dance in different areas.
Rooms and capacities
Salon: the main room, with seating for up to 160 guests. Large panoramic windows all around give a view of the Rhine from every seat, and the whole salon is air-conditioned.
Bar: a rustic bar is the center of the ship, for beer, coffee and drinks during the evening.
Lounge corner: a quiet area at the back with standing tables and a door to the upper deck, useful for a small group or a drink before dinner.
Sun deck: the open deck is partly covered, has its own bar and can be used when the weather allows.
Maximum capacity on board: 250 people.
Catering
Food is served as a buffet prepared by the ship's chef on board. A menu page on the official site lists the dishes. The bar serves beer, wine and coffee. Ask the team about dietary needs when you plan the evening, and about the number of guests the buffet format suits.
