More and more couples and event organisers are deliberately choosing a venue with a distinctive character. Not a run-of-the-mill function room, but a place with history, space and the flexibility to tailor the event entirely to their own wishes. Tapijn in Maastricht fits the bill perfectly. The former troops’ canteen at the Tapijn Barracks offers an urban, industrial feel in a green setting within the Stadspark.
Tapijn is situated on the site of the former barracks on the outskirts of Maastricht city centre. Its military past is still evident in the building’s robust character. The high ceilings, open-plan layout and industrial details give the venue an atmosphere that requires little additional decoration.
The interior can be arranged in various ways. This makes Tapijn suitable for ceremonies, dinners, parties, presentations, networking events and other business or private functions. The terrace and its location in the Stadspark also offer additional possibilities during the warmer months.
The Event Management Group (EMG) team will support you throughout the organisation process – from the initial planning and scheduling right through to the technical aspects, catering and execution on the day itself.
Tapijn offers plenty of flexibility for a wedding. The industrial interior provides a understated backdrop that you can complement with flowers, lighting, long dining tables or a décor that reflects your personal preferences.
There are also various options outdoors. For example, in fine weather, you could opt for a ceremony amidst the greenery of the Stadspark. The programme can then continue indoors with a dinner, reception and evening party. As the various parts of the event can take place at the same venue, your guests won’t need to move from one place to another in between.
Tapijn is an official wedding venue recognised by Maastricht City Council. This means that the legal marriage ceremony can also take place on site. Together with the team at Event Management Group, you can put together a programme tailored to the number of guests, the atmosphere you wish to create and the way you want to celebrate this day.
Tapijn’s open-plan layout allows for a variety of set-ups. These could include a ceremony with all the chairs facing the bride and groom, a dinner served at long tables, or a relaxed arrangement with seating areas and bar tables during the drinks reception.
It is precisely the combination of a striking building and personalised styling that allows the venue to take on a different look each time. This means you are not tied to a fixed concept or a standard wedding layout. The team works with you to plan the practical details and ensures that the various parts of the day flow smoothly into one another.
Tapijn also offers a flexible venue for business events. The venue is suitable for conferences, presentations, staff parties, product launches, dinners and networking events, amongst other things.
Depending on the programme, you can choose between a theatre-style layout, round tables, long tables, standing tables or various seating areas. For a standing arrangement, Tapijn can accommodate up to 300 guests. There is also a spacious terrace available.
Its industrial feel makes the space ideal for organisations actively seeking an alternative to a conference centre or hotel function room. At the same time, Tapijn is centrally located in Maastricht, and the venue is situated right in the heart of the park.
Event Management Group supports you with the entire organisation. This includes audiovisual technology, venue set-up, lighting, catering, entertainment and programme coordination. This means you have a single point of contact for both the preparation and the execution.
Tapijn stands out thanks to its combination of history, an industrial feel and its location in the Stadspark. The open space can be adapted to suit a wide range of events and group sizes.
