About
The Upper Foyer is accessible via the stairs on either side of the Grand Foyer. It is a reception area with an open character, providing access to all rooms on the first floor. From the cozy upper bar, you can experience with a 360-view how architect Frits van Dongen has found a perfect harmony between restoration and new construction.

Not the stairs, but the lift
On either side of the Grand Foyer, the stairs lead your guests upstairs. For people with limited mobility, or for rolling containers during setup, the glass lift goes to the first floor and to the entrance of the Van Warmerdam Hall on the mezzanine.
Versatile use
In daily use, the Upper Foyer is primarily used as a reception area for guests from the Small Hall or from the balcony of the Grand Hall. During events, the foyer can be used more broadly; as an extra break-out space for interactive sessions, as an exhibition floor for exhibitors, but also for sit-down dinners for about 150 guests.
