Step into the world of Jaarbeurs

Over 100 years of extraordinary encounters

Royal Jaarbeurs was founded in 1916 to promote trade and industry. Now more than 105 years later, this ideal still forms the foundation of Jaarbeurs. We organise and facilitate a wide variety of (international) events. From meetings, workshops and training courses to conferences, business events, award ceremonies, shows and large-scale events and exhibitions. Every year, some 2.3 million visitors find their way to us. Really meeting each other is central to everything we do. Live and online.

How do we create those special encounters? In an inspired, sustainable and innovative way. Not for nothing have we been voted multiple winner of 'Best conference venue of the year' by the public.
