Wereldmuseum
Located centrally in the historic Scheepvaartkwartier, the Wereldmuseum is right by the Maas, the gateway to the world. In the stunning, iconic building, activities have been thriving since 1851. We translate the rich past into a contemporary modern wedding and event venue where hospitality, inspiration, and culinary quality are central.

With us, it’s all possible; from ceremony to celebration. Exchange your vows with a view of Rotterdam's most beautiful skyline, welcome your guests during a reception by the quay, or throw a lively party with the grandeur of yesteryears. Experience the richness of the world. Welcome to the Wereldmuseum!

Wedding Venue
Our three halls are full of Rotterdam history, have a modern interior, and all the necessary audiovisual facilities. The furniture can be adapted to your wishes in various arrangements. In the Elie van Rijckevorselzaal, a small group can toast or dine intimately. The Balzaal, possibly in combination with the Salon, can be used for a larger group during the ceremony, dinner, or party.

World Cuisine
Grand, intimate, or private. Our kitchen team cooks with love for everyone. The chefs draw inspiration from the richness of the super-diverse city that Rotterdam is. This results in exciting flavor combinations. They effortlessly cater a reception with pinchos or a dinner for 200 people. Check out our Foodbook here.
