Ready for an epic event in a legendary setting?

Hospitality hub De Hoorn breathes new life into the iconic club and TV recording studio Studio Manhattan. This venue can host events for up to 1.000 people. With its flexible set-up and its location close to the city centre, Manhattan is a great addition to Leuven’s offering.

Founded in 1980 as a mega disco, the largest dance club in the Benelux and later the studio of the Flemish TV programs 'Tien Om Te Zien' and 'Thuis'. This legendary location breathes eighties vibes and is the perfect setting for multiple events.

You have full freedom to set up your event as you wish. There are two rooms for rent: Studio 1 and a fully equipped Bar. Studio 1 can be rented as a black box so that you have complete creative freedom to organize your event. The Bar also allows your own creative interpretation. Use an event agency of your choice and be the complete master of your hyper-personal event.

Or would you rather choose a formula where the experienced event team of The Hoorn takes care of everything and plans and monitors your event from A to Z?

Determine your ideal formula and De Hoorn turns your event into an unforgettable experience.
