World Forum The Hague hosts congresses, summits, corporate events and exhibitions for up to 5,000 guests. The building has a 2,161-seat plenary auditorium, 37 break-out rooms and 12,000 square meters of exhibition space. It stands at Churchillplein 10 in The Hague, between the city center and the beach.
Seminars and company events
The venue works for association, institutional and corporate organisers. The formats it describes are congresses, summits, company events and exhibitions, with keynotes, networking and break-out sessions held under one roof. Organisers can book all rooms for exclusive use, which gives one clear site for the whole program. The building can also be dressed in the client's own house style, from signage to decor.
A team of about 70 people supports the organiser on technology, logistics and planning, from the first quote request to the event day. Security is one of the stated priorities. The venue has an experienced crisis management team, detailed risk analyses and high security standards, and it hosted the NATO summit in 2025. It also publishes showcases of past congresses, company events and summits.
Rooms and capacities
The building is organized around the Atrium, the central point from which every meeting room is reached by a simple route. Guests and speakers follow a logical flow, which helps when several sessions run at the same time.
The King Willem-Alexander Auditorium is the largest room. It seats 2,161, has a stage and a ceiling 20 meters high, and can be rebuilt to suit the format. It is the room for plenary sessions and keynotes.
The Queen Maxima Expo offers 12,000 square meters of flexible space for stands, networking and side events. The Expo Foyer on the ground floor is a lighter, open area for receptions and networking.
The venue lists 37 break-out rooms, from small meeting spaces to larger halls. The site names further spaces such as Mississippi, Pacific and Amazon. A capacity overview, photos and a virtual tour are available on the official website, so an organiser can match each room to a session before asking for a quote.
History and setting
World Forum has worked as an event venue for more than 50 years. It is also a public theater, with musicals, concerts, cabaret and dance in the program, so congress dates depend on the theater calendar. The venue sits in The Hague, the international city of peace and justice, and presents itself as a discreet and secure setting for high-level meetings.
Getting there
The site lies between the city center and the beach. It is served by public transport and reachable from two airports, and it has ample parking. The venue also publishes accessibility information for guests with reduced mobility. Requests go through the quote form on the official website, or by phone or email to the events team.
