Tell us your story. How did Amsterdam Congress Centre get started?
Amsterdam Congress Center was envisioned as a renewed yet familiar venue where impact, sustainability, safety, and diversity come together to shape an inclusive and forward-thinking meeting environment. Located near the vibrant heart of Amsterdam, the rebranded facilities at Park Inn by Radisson Amsterdam City West aims to position the venue as the Congress Center of choice for international events, adding modern sophistication and global appeal to the city’s MICE landscape.
We believe that true innovation do not always require the new—it could be found in reimagining and enhancing what already existed. By elevating the quality of our existing spaces, aligning them with creative purpose, and presenting them with compelling clarity, we’ve brought new energy and relevance to a proven location. This vision helped align creativity with utility and to establish the Amsterdam Congress Center as a place where ideas, people, and possibilities meet with purpose.
