SCALA Event center

SCALA event center is a brand-new 750 m² venue designed for every kind of event – from international conferences and product launches to hackathons, off-sites and weddings. With smart layouts, modern technology and refined catering, every occasion turns into a memorable experience.

Spaces that adapt

Nine multifunctional rooms, named after Belgian rivers, together host up to 350 guests. Movable walls make it easy to create the right atmosphere, whether intimate or large-scale. Unique detail: vehicles or large objects can be brought inside. And with an 8 x 1.70 m LED wall, every presentation makes an impact.

Culinary highlight

The in-house catering team offers flexible, tailor-made options. Centerpiece is ARNO ristorante, led by chef Louis Verstrepen (formerly Michelin-starred Da Mimmo, Brussels). Expect refined Tuscan cuisine, perfect for business lunches, group dinners or private dining. ARNO also provides catering on location.

Stay nearby

Within walking distance you’ll find three hotels – Courtyard by Marriott Ghent, Residence Inn by Marriott Ghent and Holiday Inn Express & Suites Ghent – together offering 405 comfortable rooms. Ideal for multi-day events.

Easy to reach

Accessible & sustainable
