With its city-centre location, the Tallinn Creative Hub is within walking distance of major hotels.
November 20th marked the full opening of Tallinn’s most unusual facility for hosting large events, the Tallinn Creative Hub, a historic power plant building that has been fully revamped and preserved – bricks, boilers and all.
This fantastic example of early-20th-century industrial architecture served as part of the city’s central power plant from 1913 to 1979. It’s name in Estonian translates to ‘Culture Cauldron’ in reference to the former boiler room that now makes up the largest meeting space of the 500-person venue.
A pair of giant, steam boilers is the prominent feature of the Cauldron Hall, a high-ceilinged room that offers 700 m² of space for seminars, concerts, galas, exhibitions and the like. At 504 m², the slightly smaller Black Box can accommodate more than 400 seated guests, depending on the arrangement. Several breakout rooms are also available for rent.
“The Tallinn Creative Hub will definitely be a huge advantage for Tallinn, adding another large conference venue to the list of what we can offer. Foreign visitors who have previewed it have raved about it, and that’s not surprising considering how much it stands out from the average meeting space,” said the ECB’s Managing Director Kadri Karu.
She noted that four international conferences have already booked the venue for dates in 2016.
With its city-centre location, the Tallinn Creative Hub is within walking distance of major hotels.
The Estonian Convention Bureau is a non-profit organisation established jointly by public and private sector bodies.

It is co-financed by the Estonian Tourist Board, Enterprise Estonia.
