A New Year reception venue in Berlin, held in the main hall

In January the door of building 17 matters, not the terrace. The address stays Gustav-Meyer-Allee 25, 13355 Berlin, ground floor. The borough is Mitte and the locality is Gesundbrunnen. Wedding is the former borough name and a wayfinding cue, not the district. S Humboldthain is about a ten-minute walk, and Hauptbahnhof is about 30 minutes by train and on foot.

The invitation names the main hall and a time when the reception ends. Guests from other cities book the train home with that, not a long night. U8 Voltastraße and Gesundbrunnen station are close. We do not give walking minutes for those two, because the exit changes the path.

Parking on the grounds carries the small build of a short reception. It does not replace the footpath when several hundred people arrive in the same minute and leave again later. Wet shoes and the way from the gate belong in the walk-through, not in a hope of dry paving.

Dates for this reception are checked on the corporate event page.

The reception works in the main hall, more than 600 square metres. Seated, it holds about 400 guests, standing about 600. For most of these evenings the standing reception is the figure, and about 600 is exactly that, not a row of chairs. A seated speech at table stays at about 400. A row or parliament layout in this hall is on request only.

The terrace, about 400 square metres, holds about 500 standing and about 300 at a banquet. In January it is not the plan, and its figure is not added on. Philosophia, about 180 square metres, with about 100 banquet places and about 200 in a row, suits a quiet word beforehand, not a second speech to a second room.

Open air on the AEG grounds goes to about 5,000 people across up to 5,000 square metres, outdoors only, and it is a summer format. It is not hung onto this reception as a night in the yard. Every figure is a guide, not a blanket clearance, and they are not added together.

The running order is short and written in minutes. Door, cloakroom, a drink, one speech, one more drink, end. The speech has a length fixed before print. A second address needs a reason and has to fit the same short span. After that the bar does not become a late-night operation.

The cloakroom sits so the queue of wet coats does not cross the view of the speech. Someone fetching a coat while the speech is on should not cut through the room. Music stays under the speech and quiet after it. A guest who needs the train that evening is the normal case.

A long dinner is another format and another clock. Say so beforehand if you want it, so the kitchen does not cook five courses. Seated, it then stays at about 400. The reception this text means ends before it turns into a club.

January means the main hall. The terrace stays closed as a route for guests. A door opened for air is a production decision, not a reception outdoors. Snow or rain means a mat at the door and a cloakroom that takes the wet coat, not a move outside.

We do not promise fireworks, on the courtyard or as a line in the card. A public turn of the year in the street is not this job. Open air for about 5,000 people is not a January field and is not hung onto this evening.

Catering, the bar, sound and light stay with Cantinerie. The people on the cloakroom belong in the same plan as the microphone. A second caterer crossing the courtyard meets guests who are just handing over a coat. One production holds both.

The microphone is tested in the empty main hall before the door opens. The speech has to reach the back without anyone shouting. The test is short and shows whether that one speech lands. Radios stay behind the cloakroom, not in the sightline of the speech.

The kitchen cooks a short reception, not five courses on a guess. Delivery is at ground level and keeps the build small. Light stays on faces and on the person speaking. An effect nobody ordered does not enter the running order.

This evening is not a public New Year's Eve night and not a run until morning. About 600 standing is the reception in the main hall, not a dance floor with a different promise. Seated, the figure ends at about 400.

Terrace and hall are not added, not even as a quiet reserve plus the room. About 5,000 in the open air applies only outdoors. Logos are references and not guest counts. A logo is not a headcount. This text names no client.

Building 17 is on the ground floor, the entrance is step-free and the venue is fully accessible. Wet shoes do not change that. The cloakroom must not put a step into the path. Wheelchair width comes off the raw chair count, even when most people stand that evening.

S Humboldthain is about a ten-minute walk. U8 Voltastraße and Gesundbrunnen station are close. We do not name minutes for them. Guests check railway lifts themselves. We do not promise a lift. At the end many people leave together. The footpath counts on the way in and the way out. Parking does not replace it.

The January walk-through starts at the mat, not on the terrace. We walk a winter coat from the door to the cloakroom and from there to the glass. The queue has to stand along the wall, not across the view of the speech. We look at where the coats hang without blocking the aisle. If the cloakroom runs into the speech, the plan changes before the card goes out. The reception is short. A coat that blocks the room makes it longer than the speech.

In the empty main hall we speak the address at the length you named, once, with a microphone. One speech. The minute the bar may grow louder is marked, and so is the minute the evening ends. About 600 standing is this picture when the floor is clear. If guests sit, it stays at about 400, and the speech has to be visible from the tables. Both at once is not an offer.

We read the invitation aloud. Main hall, indoors, an end at a stated time, no fireworks. Leave out the line about the clock and a reception grows the expectations of New Year's Eve. The terrace does not appear as a place for guests. One production holds the cloakroom, the kitchen, the bar, sound and light. A second trade in the courtyard collides with the coats. It is not an extra.

At the end the figures stay apart. Main hall about 400 seated or about 600 standing, terrace about 500 only as a summer figure and not as the plan, open air about 5,000 only outdoors and not in January. The date, the length of the speech and a rough coat count are enough for a first answer. The figures stay a guide. They depend on the cloakroom, on the one speech and on the path wet shoes actually walk.
