World Museum
Central in the historic Maritime Quarter lies the World Museum. Right by the Maas, the gateway to the world. In the stunning, iconic building, activities have been buzzing 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, anything is possible; from ceremony to celebration. Say 'I do' 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 yesteryear. Experience the wealth of the world. Welcome to the World Museum!
Wedding Venue
Our three rooms are full of Rotterdam history, have a modern decor, and all the necessary audiovisual facilities. The furniture can be adjusted to your wishes in different layouts. In the Elie van Rijckevorsel Room, you can toast or have an intimate dinner with a small group. The Grand Ballroom, possibly combined 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 easily cater a reception with pinchos or a dinner for 200 people. Check out our Foodbook here.
