About us

With open floor space of 18.424 m², Nekkerhal - Brussels North is unique in Europe. There is plenty of space in the hall to host trade fairs, congresses, fashion shows, business events, etc. Our Nekkerbox, a ready-to-use area, can accommodate all sorts of events, from large to small. This multi-functional venue can easily be split into separate spaces. Having several separate entrances means that multiple events can be held at the same time. There are also seven gates for trucks, making stand set-up and tear-down easier. The brand-new Nekkerbox has a floor area in excess of 2.400 m2 and can be divided into 3 separate zones. Nekkerhal’s flexibility makes it possible to customise your venue: if you are looking for a complete concept solution, Nekkerhal can take care of everything, but you can also choose to rent the venue only and use your own partners to organise your event. Nekkerhal is located just outside the ring road of the attractive historic and cultural city of Mechelen. It is easy to reach from the E19 motorway. The car park can accommodate 1,500 cars.

On Purpose Adventures
On Purpose Adventures
Multi-city
Crossed arms. Poked out bottom lips. Eye rolls. Sighs of displeasure. Mention team building, and you might get these reactions. The thought of another ropes course, forced togetherness or (gasp!) trust falls while keeping your already busy team from their work can create more stress than staying at the workplace. But not with On Purpose Adventures. Your group may need team building (focused on skill development/enhancement) or team bonding (focused on relationship-minded activities) or a combination of both. But whatever the activity, it needs to be facilitated WITH purpose and ON purpose. Most team building programs don’t tie the experience into real-world, job-related application. But ours does. On Purpose delivers team building and bonding with a purpose. Our programs are structured around the way your team operates, and can be tailored to fit your specific challenges and goals. Your team will engage in collaborative activities that build communication, cohesiveness, and enhance skills like collective problem solving, while having fun together. Team building and bonding with On Purpose Adventures brings your team members together in exciting, driven, purposeful activities that make a big impression and generate a genuine team response, keeping them productive and engaged. Skill enhancement happens in a real-life relatable structure, so your takeaways aren’t easily forgotten or lost as soon as the fun ends. Let us help you strengthen your team - on purpose.
