Host your kick-off at Sentralen

‍Venues for both professional and social activities

A kick-off can include everything from presentations and group work to dinner, entertainment and activities. We have venues of different sizes and styles, allowing you to find a solution that suits your programme.

Marmorsalen is our largest and most impressive venue. It features original marble interiors, a ceiling height of up to nine metres and plenty of space for presentations, catering and social activities.

Kronesalen is a bright and airy venue with skylights and light wooden surfaces. The room has direct access to the rooftop terrace, which is also available to hire.

Forstanderskapssalen is an elegant venue with classic wood panelling, chandeliers and a built-in stage. It is well suited to presentations, talks and shared sessions.

Gymsalen has a four-metre-high ceiling, large windows and fixed tiered seating. Its flexible floor space makes it particularly suitable for workshops, activities and interactive sessions.

Hvelvet is the former bank vault of Christiania Sparebank. This unique and intimate venue is ideal for smaller gatherings, dinners and social activities.

Produksjonsrom 1 is a bright venue with large windows and a warm atmosphere. It can be used as the main room for smaller groups or as a breakout room during a larger kick-off.

Studio A has generous ceiling height and modern technical facilities. It is well suited to presentations, live streaming, group sessions and parallel sessions.

You can also hire several venues and use them for group work, parallel activities or different parts of the programme.

Sentralen is easy for participants to reach

Sentralen is located in the heart of Oslo, between Egertorget and Akershus Fortress, and is easily accessible by tram, metro and train.

Our central location makes it easy to bring together colleagues travelling from different places, whether your kick-off lasts a few hours, a full day or continues into the evening.

Combine presentations, group work and activities

We help you find venues and room layouts that suit the content of your kick-off. For example, you could begin the day with a shared presentation, divide the participants into smaller groups and finish with dinner or a social gathering.

The venues can be arranged in several ways, including theatre-style seating, classroom-style seating, long tables or smaller groups. The available options depend on the venue you choose and the number of participants.

Technical equipment and staff

We can provide the technical equipment and staff you need for your event.

This may include:

• Projector and screen
• Microphones
• Audio connection from a computer
• Stage and stage lighting
• Sound and lighting technicians
• Live streaming or recording

One of our producers will plan the event with you and help coordinate the venues, technical requirements, catering and programme.

Food and drinks for your kick-off

Food and drinks can be adapted to the programme and timing of your event. You can, for example, order breakfast, lunch, refreshments, dinner or catering for the social part of the kick-off.

We help you find a solution that suits the number of participants, your preferred style of service and the venues you will be using.

Continue your kick-off on the rooftop terrace

To finish the day outdoors, you can hire the rooftop terrace together with Kronesalen. Here, participants can gather for food, drinks and socialising while enjoying views across central Oslo.

The rooftop terrace is well suited to summer parties, informal conversations and rounding off a day of professional activities.
