Frequently Asked Questions
DeFabrique is one of the largest events and activities venues in the Netherlands, located in the edge of Utrecht. DeFabrique is centrally located, close to Utrecht and along the A2 highway. This makes it easily accessible and parking is free.
If you are arriving by car, park in one of our 700 free parking spots. Our professional parking assistants will receive you and assign a spot to you, to ensure that you can park your car smoothly and get started on your day without any hassle.
Various trains from both Amsterdam and Utrecht stop at our local Maarssen train station. There will be a shuttle service from and to Maarssen station both before and after the event.
Alternatively; DeFabrique is a mere fifteen minutes’ walk from the station.
Because both the pre-party on 9th of November as well as the Summit are celebrated in Utrecht, we recommend you to pick a hotel in Utrecht. It is a very pretty city and convenient to travel to and from, also when you want to explore Amsterdam (from Utrecht to Amsterdam is only a 30 minute train ride).
Regarding hotels, here are some suggestions:
- Bunk Hotel Utrecht (also in Amsterdam, https://wearebunk.com )Why? City center, artsy vibe, nice buzz, good food. It is very alive ’n kicking!Why not? Well, if you want a more quiet space and perhaps a bigger room, than there are better options.
- Inntel Hotels Utrecht (https://www.inntelhotelsutrechtcentre.nl/)Why? Next to the train station and on walking distance from the city centre, a modern hotel with good views of the city. It just got everything you expect from a hotel.Why not? If you want less hotel vibe and are looking for a more budget option.
- Ibis HotelWhy? Just a fine hotel if you come by car (free parking around the hotel), want to be able to walk only minutes to the pre-summit party and are look for a more budget option.Why not? Well, although the hotel is still close to the centre of Utrecht, it still takes you 15 minutes by bike.

Over 250 attendees loved last year’s Obeya Summit!

Inspiring! The genuine sharing of knowledge at all levels is very cool.
If you’re just starting with Obeya, you can learn things here, but even those who have been working with it for a long time still learn new things.

Very meaningful day! My key takeaway today?
“Don’t check, Study” – from Bjarne, I could definitely do more of that.

The people are sincere and very nice, the ambiance, the location, the lighting, the music. A really nice setting! And the catering was very good! Only a pity there was no chocolate at lunch.
