Tables for 10 or 12 people

For a smaller meeting, team discussion or workshop, we can arrange compact table groups. Everyone sits together, with enough space for writing, laptops and conversation.

Table setup โ€“ 10 people

Example: three joined tables with ten chairs.

Table setup โ€“ 12 people

Tafelblok met vier tafels en twaalf stoelen voor een training
Example: four joined tables with twelve chairs.

These examples suit meetings where discussion and interaction matter. Several smaller table groups can also be arranged alongside one another.


Four group tables for training and workshops

Do your participants regularly work in teams? Separate tables make a practical layout. Participants can start together and then work on assignments in smaller groups.

We take into account walking routes, good sightlines to the projection screen and space for facilitators or catering.


Long tables for meetings or dinner

A long table arrangement works well for a meeting, group lunch or informal gathering. Tables can be joined or separated to suit the number of guests.

Flexible room space with a mobile curtain partition

Een kleinere groep in een grote zaal? โ€™t Oude Parochiehuis beschikt ook over een mobile curtain partition. Daarmee kunnen we een gedeelte van de zaal afschermen en de beschikbare ruimte optisch kleiner en intiemer maken. Dit is bijvoorbeeld prettig bij trainingen, vergaderingen, een diner of een bijeenkomst met een beperkt aantal gasten.

The curtain partition is movable. We will agree on its position based on the desired room layout, sightlines, circulation space and technical facilities. It is a flexible visual divider, not a soundproof or structural partition.

Which room layout suits your event?

The best choice depends on your number of guests, programme and how participants will work together. In the Middle Room training sessions with tables can accommodate around 30 to 60 participants, depending on the layout. For a plenary event without tables, combining the room with the Bar Room provides more options, with up to around 150 seats depending on the setup.

For a presentation or training session, the Middle Room can be equipped with a projector, projection screen and two side displays. Audiovisual equipment and any additional technical support can be arranged on request.

Also suitable for

  • Meetings, board meetings and team days
  • Training courses and interactive workshops
  • Presentations and business events
  • Lunch meetings, dinners and family gatherings

What room layouts are available?

Options include meeting tables with 10 or 12 chairs, four separate group tables or long tables. We agree on the final layout in advance based on your group size and programme.

Yes. Together, they form an area of approximately 180 mยฒ with a bar. This is convenient when your event includes a welcome, catering or drinks reception.
