Utrecht Convention Bureau launches revamped Venuefinder

A brand new venue finder makes finding the perfect location in Utrecht easier than ever. On 9 January 2025, the Utrecht Convention Bureau launched the completely revamped Utrecht Venuefinder , a platform that connects event planners, event organisers and organisers of conferences, training courses, meetings, receptions and company parties directly with the most beautiful conference and meeting locations in both Utrecht city centre and the Utrecht region. As developers of online solutions for destinations, we are extremely enthusiastic and proud to announce the launch of the revamped Utrecht Venuefinder. The handy online platform and the underlying tool, which we developed together with the Utrecht Convention Bureau, make searching for a conference or meeting location in Utrecht easier than ever.

Why a new Venue Finder for Utrecht?

Utrecht is bursting with possibilities for business events. From intimate meeting rooms to impressive conference halls – the city and region has it all. But as an event planner, how exactly do you find that perfect venue? That question was central to the development of this platform. Utrecht has so much to offer for business events! Whether you are looking for one congress location or several congress locations, a meeting location or a location for a company party – Utrecht has it all.

Discover unique venues in the center of Utrecht

While building the Utrecht Venuefinder, we were increasingly surprised by the diversity of locations in Utrecht center. Think of:

Find the perfect location throughout the Utrecht region as well

But the entire Utrecht region offers much more. From modern conference centers in Amersfoort, forts in the countryside to castles in Woerden – everything is easy to find and find on things like distance to public transportation, airport and highway. Think about:

Managing information has never been easier

Venues can now easily maintain and update all their data themselves, giving organizers and event planners constant access to the most up-to-date information. Both the distinctive characteristics of their venue and the rooms and various room facilities can be tracked. They can also indicate whether their venue is accessible to guests with disabilities and how they deal with sustainability at their venue.

About the platform, tool and map with all regions

We built the Utrecht venuefinder in a Dutch and English version and in line with the Utrecht Convention Bureau’s corporate identity. The venuefinder is optimized to make venues easy to find and organizers can request a question, request or quote directly from a venue in just a few clicks. In addition to the filtering options, we also displayed all venues on a map for the more oriented organizer. We also made an integration with the website of the Utrecht Convention Bureau and can show locations of a city or region there, so the Venuefinder is not separate from the Utrecht Convention Bureau. Behind the Utrecht Venuefinder is our tool where all venues are stored and where the information of both the venue and the venues can be managed by the venues themselves. Employees of have their own login and can update their venue correctly without intervention, but with clear guidelines and a help center. All locations can also direct their questions to our support team. Read the case study.
