PRESS CONFERENCE VENUE
The Unusual Brussels

Brussels is the capital of press conferences — EU institutions, NATO, international organizations all do them here constantly. But when smaller brands, startups, or local organizations need a press conference venue in Brussels, they don't need a massive press room. They need something with character that makes their announcement feel special.
The Unusual on Warmoesberg 49 has a proper stage upstairs, a professional projector, and a sound system that makes every speaker sound clear. The space holds up to 120 journalists and attendees, with booth seating and bar service. Your press conference can go from formal announcement to casual drinks in minutes — which is when the real conversations happen anyway.
We've hosted product announcements, brand launches, and local organization press events. One NGO based near Merode held their annual report launch here. They did presentations on stage, had a Q&A, then moved to cocktails. The journalists stayed an hour longer than expected because they were enjoying themselves. Thats what a good venue does.
Press conference venue options in central Brussels are either government-style rooms (intimidating) or hotel spaces (generic). The Unusual offers a third option — professional enough for media but unique enough to be memorable. Photographers love the lighting. Journalists love the bar. PR people love the photos that come out of it.
The location is perfect too. Two minutes from Central Station, close to all major media offices. Easy to find, easy to reach, easy to remember.
Press conference venue at The Unusual, Warmoesberg 49 Brussels. Make your announcement in a space that people actually want to be in.
