Some of them no longer exist: they were bought and then demolished by developers, or are in danger of collapsing. But there are still places in Warsaw that have had a second youth and often serve as&nbsp;<strong>atmospheric event venues.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">A common motif in these places is old facades or walls covered in red-orange brick, and that&#8217;s what I focused on when putting together this list of event venues.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-1bc10c40\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Industrial-style event venues with soul<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Often as a <a href=\"https:\/\/urbanflavour.pl\/en\/about-me\/\" class=\"rank-math-link\">photographer<\/a>, and sometimes as a guest, I&#8217;ve had the chance to visit many places that charmed me with their atmosphere. I&#8217;ll show you the ones that stuck in my memory the most and that I think are worth a look if you want to organise an&nbsp;<strong>event in an atmospheric place with soul.<\/strong>&nbsp;I think that despite its bad reputation,&nbsp;<strong>Warsaw&#8217;s Praga district leads the way when it comes to venues with an unconventional style.<\/strong>&nbsp;This is where my grandparents and my father grew up, and now I live here myself with my fianc\u00e9e and we have nothing to complain about. Maybe only the loud night-time &#8220;parties&#8221; in the Praga gateways now and then, but that&#8217;s the vibe here. Concerts in the gateways and partying until morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/urbanflavour.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/fort-8-warszawa-urysnow-wino-lezaki-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Venues for an industrial-style photo shoot\" class=\"wp-image-20144\" title=\"Urbanflavour.pl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/urbanflavour.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/fort-8-warszawa-urysnow-wino-lezaki-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/urbanflavour.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/fort-8-warszawa-urysnow-wino-lezaki-1-830x623.jpg 830w, https:\/\/urbanflavour.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/fort-8-warszawa-urysnow-wino-lezaki-1-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/urbanflavour.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/fort-8-warszawa-urysnow-wino-lezaki-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>List of industrial event venues&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The order is completely random, because every place has its own atmosphere and space. Some are smaller and some larger, and it&#8217;s worth keeping that in mind when planning your event. You can often rent just part of a space, but it&#8217;s always worth making sure your event won&#8217;t be disrupted by another party or celebration. It&#8217;s hard to run a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/urbanflavour.pl\/en\/kategoria\/portfolio-en\/event-photography\/conferences\/\" class=\"rank-math-link\">conference<\/a> when there are dance parties going on behind a partition wall and the attendees, instead of taking notes, are tapping their feet to the beat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some suggestions may also refer to more general places such as &#8220;<strong>Koneser<\/strong>&#8220;, where you can find several different venues, so I&#8217;ll start with it.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-ee9d4c62\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>&#8220;Koneser&#8221; Vodka Distillery<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>address:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/Yc6Ka5fv6j7GBxJw7\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"ek-link\">Plac Konesera, 03-736 Warsaw<\/a><\/li><li>website:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/koneser.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"ek-link\">https:\/\/koneser.eu\/<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/urbanflavour.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/fotograf-na-urodziny-syreni-spiew-warszawa-urbanflavour-29-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Photographer at a birthday party at Koneser\" class=\"wp-image-18702\" title=\"Urbanflavour.pl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/urbanflavour.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/fotograf-na-urodziny-syreni-spiew-warszawa-urbanflavour-29-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/urbanflavour.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/fotograf-na-urodziny-syreni-spiew-warszawa-urbanflavour-29-830x554.jpg 830w, https:\/\/urbanflavour.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/fotograf-na-urodziny-syreni-spiew-warszawa-urbanflavour-29-500x334.jpg 500w, https:\/\/urbanflavour.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/fotograf-na-urodziny-syreni-spiew-warszawa-urbanflavour-29.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">Koneser is the site of an old historic vodka distillery in the heart of Warsaw&#8217;s Praga district.

The venue&#8217;s website mentions windows of almost three metres and a 120-year-old wooden roof, so it&#8217;s not just my impression.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-d7fb25b5\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ma\u0142a Warszawa<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>address: Otwocka 14, 03-759 Warsaw<\/li><li>website:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.malawarszawa.pl\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.malawarszawa.pl\/<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/urbanflavour.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/mala-warszawa-sala-z-industrialnym-piecem-warszawa-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"An industrial-style hall with exposed brick walls and pipes, set up for an event.
