After an extensive renovation of four years the National Maritime Museum opened its doors last  October. Since then 200,000 people have visited ‘Het Scheepvaartmuseum’, Incentive Europe being one of them. The most spectacular change is the glass-roof covering the courtyard, with individually  adjustable LED lights at all 868 intersection points of the steel frame.

Under the professional guidance of Jurjen Fontein you will work with paint, canvas, paintbrushes and maulsticks. You are assured of a double result; a work of art (often amazingly creative) which deserves a special place in the office and a group experience that one will not easily forget. During the Master class you have a choice between painting your own painting on canvas from 40×50 cm or together on panels of 122×122 which gives a 4- or 5-window painting. This event can also be combined with a lunch in a restaurant in the neighbourhood, or even on the spot if you wish.

Looking for a typical Dutch location for your next event? What about a visit to the Heineken Brewery in Amsterdam, a national monument and an exciting venue for meetings and events. With the beer production being moved to the new plant in Zoeterwoude, the Heineken Brewery was transformed into the Heineken Experience, both a tourist attraction as a meeting centre. In the Heineken Experience you will learn all about the world’s most famous beer.

But what makes this venue even more unique is the fact that five meeting rooms have been created on the top floors of this historical building, with a great view over Amsterdam. Each meeting room has its own style and is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities. The Heineken Experience can host events for up to 650 people. Curious about the possibilities the Heineken Experience has to offer? Contact us directly.

“I started working for Incentive Europe three years ago. Before this I worked at the Sports & Events department of ATP for five years. I coordinate incentives or small groups  to congresses for 800 people or more. The best thing about my job is the contact with a lot of different clients, a great diversity in projects and of course the fun atmosphere we have at the office. It’s a great feeling to be able to turn each event into a great success.  I love finding new, interesting destinations and making the impossible possible.

If you ask me about my favorite corporate destination I would have to say Malta, because of the many possibilities this island has to offer and because of the great contacts we have there. New York is my favorite place to go for a vacation. I love the fact that is so busy, has lots of possibilities, many restaurants…basically everything.”
