The Groot Handelsgebouw (GHG), an icon of Rotterdam’s reconstruction and home to more than 450 companies, is proud to announce an exciting new phase this spring. In collaboration with Révolt, the pioneer of innovative events in Rotterdam, the roof of the GHG will be transformed into a dynamic event venue, The Rooftop at GHG. The former Engels halls and terraces will be transformed into a vibrant hub for events and public activities.

New life at the Groot Handelsgebouw | The Rooftop at GHG

Real estate company Jamestown, owner of the Groot Handelsgebouw, is strongly committed to the continued activation of the Rotterdam icon for businesses and the public: “We aim to continue the legacy of the Groot Handelsgebouw for a new generation with site activations and programming that match the building’s rich history, while also serving tenants and the surrounding community,” said Thomas Sandlin, head of Asset Management, Europe at Jamestown.

Like with The Rooftop at GHG. With its various indoor spaces with freely divisible rooms ranging from 120, 500 and 700m2 and terraces from 40 to 200m2, it promises to become a unique venue for events. The Rooftop can be transformed into any type of event space. Several basic facilities are available, but with different suppliers, anything is possible to create a customised event.

Révolt is a Rotterdam-based events organisation focused on creating unique and unforgettable experiences at appealing venues. With a passion for innovation and creativity, Révolt aims to push the boundaries of the events industry. “Rotterdam is buzzing with creativity and energy, and that dynamic deserves a beautiful location. With The Rooftop at GHG, we are creating a unique event location that matches the city’s ambition. An inspiring place where Rotterdammers and visitors can come together, develop new ideas and experience unforgettable moments. With a breathtaking view of the city as the backdrop, The Rooftop at GHG will become the hotspot for high-profile events.” Says Yagoub, founder Révolt operator of pop venue Annabel and cultural stage Perron, and various festivals such as REC festival, the Free People and the ‘Kralingse Bos’-Festival.

Central location with the best view

The central location right next to Central Station, makes The Rooftop at GHG perfectly accessible to both national and international visitors. In addition, the ample parking facilities combined with an abundance of nearby hotels and restaurants make this the perfect place for an event. As of May this year, The Rooftop will welcome its first events, ushering in a new chapter as the event venue with the best view in Rotterdam!
