The leading expat fair in the Netherlands
Since it was established, the IamExpat Fair has connected more than 580 companies with more than 33.400 visitors from 160 countries around the world, and hosted more than 310 workshops and information sessions, making it the leading fair for internationals in the Netherlands.

About the venue
Yet another great thing about the IamExpat Fair is its stunning venue, the Grote Kerk. Attendees can easily reach the IamExpat Fair at the Grote Kerk on foot, by bike, by car or by public transportation, thanks to its convenient location in the historic heart of The Hague. Along with the famous Binnenhof, this historic building is one of the oldest in the whole city. Its immense size, impressive high-vaulted ceilings and beautiful stained-glass windows make it one of the neighbourhood’s most remarkable landmarks.

The Grote Kerk is often used for important events such as exhibitions, fairs, concerts and, of course, church services. Not only that, but it’s a place where history is made! Weddings and baptisms of the Dutch royal family continue to take place here every year. The Grote Kerk has been home to the IamExpat Fair The Hague since 2016.
