Why choose Fier Bussum?
Fier Bussum works well for corporate events that can be more than a standard meeting. You’re looking for a location where guests feel spacious, can easily engage with each other, and the program naturally gains more energy.
The fort grounds instantly give your event a unique atmosphere. You walk past historic walls, green fields, casemates, and characterful spots that you wouldn’t expect in the middle of Bussum. This makes Fier Bussum feel exclusive, special, and relaxed at the same time.
For organizers, the location is clear and flexible. You can organize a plenary program for up to about 100 people. After that, you use the two characterful indoor spaces for sub-sessions, breakouts, or smaller group moments. Outside, there is space for larger groups of up to about 350 people, for example, for a drink, barbecue, or informal dinner.

Heritage, character, and trust
Fier Bussum is located on Fort Werk IV. This fort was built in 1868 as part of the New Dutch Water Line. On the grounds, you can still see elements from that history, such as casemates, a wall with shooting holes, a sally port, and an old artillery shed.
The location therefore has more significance than just space. You organize your event on cultural heritage that is managed by the Stichting Fort Werk IV. With your booking, you contribute to the preservation of the grounds and the buildings.
This gives Fier Bussum a strong identity. You choose a corporate outdoor location where nature, history, and hospitality come together. A place that guests will remember, precisely because the setting feels different than expected.
