Stockholm, the “Venice of the North,” captivates visitors with its mosaic of water-laced streets, regal architecture, and a seamless interplay between ancient structures and cutting-edge design. It’s a city where Viking echoes mingle with sleek modernism, making it fertile ground for corporate events, conferences, and group gatherings. As business meets culture, planners find venues here that don’t just host events; they elevate them.
Converted warehouse and industrial spaces have particularly flourished in Stockholm’s event landscape. Once home to machinery, freight, or factory floors, these structures now boast soaring ceilings, exposed brick, steel trusses, and open floor plans. The transformation is often profound: raw spaces reimagined for product launches, international expos, or gala dinners, where guests experience both atmosphere and authenticity. With a backdrop of calm archipelagos and Nordic light, these venues marry history with modern functionality.
Here are standout warehouse and industrial-style venues across Stockholm that continue to operate, offering more than just square meters: immersive experiences.
Located in Frihamnen (City’s eastern waterfront), this vast former industrial space spans 3,745 sqm and accommodates up to 3,750 standing guests. With three floors, two outdoor areas, four bars, and production-ready infrastructure (lighting, sound, loading docks), it’s built for scale and spectacle. The ceiling height of 7.5 m and blank canvas feel enable bold branding and large-stage layouts.
Frihamnen is well-served by public transport including buses and the metro (T-Centralen). There are ample hotels in central Östermalm and Norrmalm, a 10-15 minute taxi or transit ride away. Stockholm Arlanda Airport is roughly 40 minutes by car or airport express train.
Perfect for large conferences, concerts, or product launches. Parking is generous, and blackout options are available.
In the revitalized Slakthus (Meatpacking) district, a post-industrial warehouse (718 sqm) was reborn as a cultural hub in 2024. It can host 100 to 2,400 standing guests, or up to 638 in theater bookings, 432 for banquets, and 320 at round tables. This space includes two indoor stages, five bars, a sunlit outdoor area (ideal for street food setups), and high-tech rigging points.
Located near the Globen / Johanneshov metro (T-bana), with easy suburban rail links. Nearby hotels in Gullmarsplan and Söderort neighborhoods. The area offers good airport access (just around 30 minutes away).
A grand Art Nouveau-style hall originally built for transportation (early 20th century) in Johanneshov. It offers approx 913 sqm of lofty space (10 m ceiling height), capacity for up to 3,500 guests, and multiple dressing rooms, 20+ toilets, and logistic access. Its decorative ironwork and expansive space create a grand, dramatic setting.
Just off the Globen metro, with direct links to central Stockholm, with nearby hotels and dining in Johanneshov and Skärholmen. The venue is within short driving distance from the airport, just around 35 minutes.
Located centrally (near Slussen), this space transformed from a beer factory features high ceilings, exposed steel, oak flooring, and arched windows. Capacity reaches ~450 standing across ground floor and mezzanine. A highlight is its 40 m outdoor terrace overlooking Riddarfjärden and City Hall. Fully equipped with modern AV, bar, and catering-ready infrastructure.
Slussen is a central transit hub, providing easy access to metro, commuter rail, and buses. It's conveniently located within walking distance of several hotels in both Gamla Stan and Södermalm. The airport is approximately 30 minutes away by taxi or train. This location is perfect for product launches, networking events, or elegant cocktail receptions, offering iconic water views.
Part of a larger warehouse-style festival campus comprising multiple venues that combined can host 5,000+ visitors. Designed as a modular district, this raw canvas lets planners mix indoor halls with outdoor plazas. Think innovation labs, brand immersions, pop-up exhibitions, all in an industrial-chic shell.
The Slakthusområdet where the venue is located boasts excellent accessibility, conveniently serviced by the metro (Globen/Johanneshov) and the broader Stockholm tram and bus network. Hotels in the city center are approximately a 10-15 minute ride away.
These warehouse and post-industrial venues highlight Stockholm’s ability to merge heritage and high performance. Whether your event needs to accommodate 100 or 3,000+, they offer architectural drama, flexible layout, and advanced technical readiness, all framed by Scandinavia’s light, design sensibility, and logistical precision. For corporate planners seeking memorable backdrops, these venues supply both canvas and character.
