Het Arsenaal

Brusselsesteenweg 602, 9050 Gent, Belgium

Het Arsenaal is an extensive former railway site in Gentbrugge, where organisers can find space for events and temporary activities. The place has a distinctive industrial character: old railway halls, buildings and open grounds are reminders of its long history as a workshop for the Belgian railways. This setting offers a different backdrop from a traditional function room or meeting venue.
The site is being put to temporary use while plans for future urban development are being drawn up. This creates space for a wide range of initiatives, from one-off events to activities that take place on the site for longer. Organisers can contact Het Arsenaal to enquire about renting buildings or grounds and the options available for their activity. The exact arrangements are tailored to the space available and the conditions on the site.
The calendar includes markets, performances, sporting initiatives and public events. This gives an idea of the range of formats that can take place at the venue, but it is best to discuss available spaces, practical requirements and options directly with the manager. This allows organisers to check whether the site suits their programme and the set-up they have in mind.
Het Arsenaal's location on Brusselsesteenweg makes it accessible from Ghent and the surrounding area. Visitors can reach the venue by car, bicycle and public transport. For anyone looking for a spacious venue with character for a temporary or public event, Het Arsenaal is a place to explore.
