O2 universum is a congress and event centre in Prague that rents 38 halls for conferences, congresses, company parties, gala dinners and balls. Spaces range from rooms for 40 people up to a main hall for 5,000, and the venue says it can adapt layouts to the event. It has its own catering, and guests can stay at STAGES HOTEL Prague.
Seminars and company events
The centre targets business events in three main formats. Conferences and congresses use halls that can be linked in several combinations, with space for registration, an accompanying exhibition and catering. Custom company events cover Christmas parties, company celebrations, gala dinners and product launches for up to 5,000 invited guests. Gala dinners and balls combine the halls with the in-house catering and with partner suppliers for programme, decoration and technical equipment.
The site lists past events that show the range. A professional conference drew 300 attendees, a marketing conference 700 to 800, an economic chamber assembly about 500, and a company Christmas party with catering and live bands 1,200. An industry awards ceremony and its after-party gathered 3,000 guests, and a two-day food trade show about 10,000.
Rooms and capacities
The halls are grouped by letter. Hall A is the largest and uses movable tribunes, so it can be set for sport, congress seating, concert seating or standing. Halls B, C, D and E are sub-divided into smaller rooms such as B1, B2 and B3, which can be combined, for example B1 with B2 or B1 to B3. Plans show classroom and theater layouts for these halls, and a long school layout for some combinations.
The Meeting Hub groups 17 smaller halls of about 50 or 100 m² each, set up as classroom or theater and lit by daylight. These halls cannot be interconnected. Exact capacities per layout are given in the venue's brochure, its 3D virtual tour and its floor plans, so ask for them in your brief.
Accommodation
STAGES HOTEL Prague belongs to the same complex of venues, and the centre lists accommodation there for event guests. The site gives no room count, so confirm the number of bedrooms when you plan a multi-day programme.
Catering
Catering is handled in house. The site shows foyer catering for Hall A and the Meeting Hub, and round tables for dinners in Hall B. The centre mentions fine dining, served dinners and gala evenings, and says it works with partner suppliers for decoration, performers and technical equipment. Banquet capacities are not published.
