Built in 1919, Astoria Klubi is home to the breathtaking Astoria Hall and the Astor Cabinet. An event in the main hall is made special by not only the experience in question but also by the space’s eight-meter-high ceiling, impressive gallery area, ornate finishes, and original oak floors. A truly unique way to appreciate the fine neo-classical building is by attending an enchanting Candlelight concert featuring talented musicians and a sea of candles.
Astoria can be found at Iso Roobertinkatu 14, a lively street more locally known as “Roba”. Given its location in the middle of Helsinki, getting there shouldn’t prove to be very difficult. Only an 8-minute tram ride from Helsinki Central Station, Iso Roobertinkatu is within walking distance of quality hotels, restaurants, cafés, and bars. If arriving by car, Aimo Park Erottaja is the nearest parking garage (Astoria customers can avail of a discount).

Did you know that Astoria Klubi…
1. Is made possible by Top Lounges services
Top Lounges services have their own venues, staff, and catering. Fortunately, Astoria is included on their list of projects. Top Lounges are not bound to any single venue—as well as the award-winning service transforming spaces like Astoria’s magnificent main hall for a wide range of events, they can provide expert advice and assistance for individual clients.
2. Can accommodate up to 500 people
Between the large stage, traditional balcony, and high ceilings, Astoria covers an extensive area that is easily adapted depending on the kind of celebration or event. Naturally, it is suited to live music performances. However, there are no fixed seats meaning all that is needed is the appropriate furniture to repurpose the setting. For example, up to 250 people can enjoy a sit-down meal in the hall.
3. Has a fully-equipped meeting room
Away from the more theatrical, musical, and grander celebratory aspects of the venue, intimate family gatherings or business meetings can be hosted in the Astor Cabinet. Up to 60 people fit comfortably and the space is equipped with adjustable lighting, a flipchart, and a fiber optic internet connection.
