18 Dec The-Party is moving to Nieuwegein!
The next edition of The-Party is almost here and 2020 is the year where a few important things will change. Because Beursgebouw Eindhoven is closing its doors forever, the biggest change will be the location. Read this post to be up to date about our changes and read our first announcements!
Location
We’re moving from Eindhoven to Nieuwegein, to the Beursfabriek to be more specific, which is 72 kilometers from Eindhoven. A nice location with more possibilities. Fun fact: this used to be the main venue for the old lanparty ‘Netgamez’. The-Party is used to being sold out, but Beursfabriek Nieuwegein has room for more participants. We’re trading our many restaurants within walking distance for a big amount of free parking spaces. There is a McDonald’s close by, as well as a restaurant with a bowling center. Within a 5 minute driving distance you can find multiple supermarkets. If you want to book a hotel, we recommend to book something in Utrecht and make use of the tram or an Uber. Of course, at the moment we’re looking into a nice hotel deal.
