A rough pearl on the IJ: this is why Helling 7 is the ultimate spot for your wedding!

Amidst the steel of ships, old harbor cranes, and the smell of fire lies something special: Helling 7. This former shipyard canteen in Amsterdam's port area has been transformed into a stunning hotspot: raw, atmospheric, and utterly unique. The industrial setting, reclaimed materials, and a generous dose of character make this place special. Here, the past and present collide, and you can feel the difference.

Helling 7 is an all-in-one venue on the IJ River: industrial, atmospheric, and surprisingly versatile. The venue offers several unique spaces, allowing you to tailor your event exactly to your wishes. Whether it's an intimate ceremony, a grand party, a lavish dinner, or a relaxed drinks reception overlooking the IJ, anything is possible at Helling 7.
Inside, the restaurant boasts a robust setting where a wood fire takes center stage. The open kitchen is a place for intuitive cooking: flames, pure flavors, and beautiful ingredients prepared authentically. The restaurant is an industrial space where the rugged charm of the harbor blends with a contemporary atmosphere, perfect for both cozy dinners and large groups and parties. For an intimate setting, there's the conservatory: bright, inviting, and ideal for special occasions.
One floor below lies the wharf cellar, tucked away beneath the restaurant and a true hidden gem. Intimate, a touch mysterious, and perfect for dinners, drinks, or parties. The cellar can be combined with the garden for an enhanced outdoor experience, including views over the harbor area. Raw, industrial, and guaranteed to create a pleasant atmosphere.
The terrace offers a front-row view of Amsterdam's last active shipyard. Raw, vibrant, and utterly unique. While you're getting married overlooking the IJ River, sparks fly on the other side. In case of rain, a covered area transforms the terrace into a cozy outdoor space.
The garden also exudes ambiance. Cozy nooks, stunning views, and space to celebrate, dine, or simply relax. The garden is perfect for sunny ceremonies, drinks, or parties that last well into the night. Tip: The garden is the ideal venue for a festival wedding, creating a unique experience for guests in a setting that's anything but standard.
