What are you planning?
Choose the type of event: each page has its own spaces, services and past events.
Floor areas, access and facilities are all on one page; catering, audio and video services and set-up on another.
same space, different stories.
Two spaces, the Area Loft and the Area Industrial, which you can rent separately or together.
On-site parking, a freight elevator, a view of the lake.
If you want a single point of contact, we organize catering, audio and video services, lighting and set-up with our partners. If you already have your own, let’s meet them.
Area Loft
More intimate, with a fully equipped kitchen. For meetings, lunches and aperitivos that run late.
Area Industrial
A large open space, with arched windows on three sides. Put the stage wherever you like.
Everyone wants Milan. Then they have to park.
We’re in Lecco, 45 minutes from Milan: close enough to get here and back in a day, far enough from restricted traffic zones, parking that costs a fortune and rooms shared with the event next door.
Free on-site parking
Free and inside the venue. No restricted zones, no circling the block, no parking meter.
Exclusive use
The space is yours alone. No other event in the room next door.
Loading and unloading
Trucks up to 4.5 m drive in and the freight lift takes 550 kg. Try that downtown.
Lake view
Outside there’s the lake, not the ring road.
One point of contact
Space, catering, audio and video services and set-up: one number to call, not six.
