konventa is your ideal host for the organisation of conferences and events, with beautiful venues and a special range of catering options.
Come and dine in the Universiteitsclub, the restaurant located in the right wing of the beautiful, historic Hof van Liere from the 16th century. The Hof van Liere is one of our other unique venues that offers no fewer than ten conference rooms. In addition, you can also choose to hold an event in the Klooster van de Grauwzusters where four conference rooms can be found and the new UCSIA building with three large conference rooms.

Closing days
During the academic year, there are two periods when konventa is closed, in addition to the University of Antwerp's public holidays and closure days. The day of the Academic Opening of the new academic year, we help out with the entire team to celebrate on site. On that day, no activities are accepted in the congress rooms of the Hof van Liere and the Klooster van de Grauwzusters.
