Gala dinner for Hewlett Packard in Museu Marítim

A dinner top gala production for Hewlett-Packard at the Museu Marítim de Barcelona at the height of their guests.

At Eventos Barcelona we can say that we have had the honor of producing the Hewlett Packard Gala Dinner in conjunction with a well-known event agency in Madrid. This exclusive event, aimed at executives from Spain and Portugal, was held in the emblematic Sala Comillas of the Museu Marítim de Barcelona, as part of the congress that welcomed more than 10,000 people at Fira 2 in Barcelona.

One of our main challenges was to create an experience that combined a welcoming setting with a first-class technical and artistic production for such a select audience.

To do so, we decided to take advantage of and highlight the architecture offered by the Sala Comillas, as well as to creating a dynamic, entertaining and premium program for the attendees. Below we detail how we were able to achieve our objectives.

The organization of this event represented a challenge for Eventos Barcelona, which required a combination of creativity and venue experience to ensure its success.

Setting and decoration according to the concept of the event and the venue.

We immersed ourselves in the ambience and decoration of the Sala Comillas at the Museu Marítim de Barcelona with an original and attractive approach. We used carefully selected chill out furniture to meet one of the objectives of the event, to design a relaxed, open and comfortable space to create an ideal environment for networking. As a visual element, we designed lighting that highlighted the impressive columns of the room, transforming the space into a welcoming and visually stunning atmosphere with several gobos around the room. Every detail was carefully considered to create a captivating environment.

A high-level technical and artistic production, the key to success.

The coordination of the technical and artistic production was tailored to the needs of the client, whose main concern was that the entire space had a good visibility of the stage, so we set up 4 giant screens strategically located around the room to broadcast live with 3 TV cameras every moment of the event.

From the awards ceremony to the captivating performance of our jazz band, every moment was perfectly executed by our event manager, ready to anticipate any live eventuality. Finally, we had the special engagement of a famous TV monologuist, whose presence added a touch of humor and entertainment to the gala.

Eventos Barcelona is proud to have been part of the Hewlett Packard Gala Dinner, offering an unforgettable event for all attendees.

Our experience and dedication in the artistic and technical production of events positions us as a leading producer in the creation of events for national and international companies.

And we’re going for more!

Frequently asked questions about this case

Can you organise a gala at Museu Marítim in Barcelona?

Yes. Museu Marítim (former Drassanes Reials) allows private corporate events in its 13th-century Gothic naval hall. Capacity up to 800 seated guests. One of Barcelona's most impressive venues with stone arcades under 15m ceilings.

What technical production does an event at Museu Marítim require?

Sound with delay lines due to ceiling height, architectural lighting on the arcades for WOW effect, and standalone rigging that doesn't touch stone. Technically demanding but allows visual scale impossible to replicate in a hotel.

Can you produce a gala with a large technical show at Museu Marítim?

Yes. Particularly good for aerial dance, architectural mapping on the arcades and shows with a "grand voyage" or discovery narrative. The venue's visual scale amplifies any technical show.

What is the ideal capacity for a gala at this venue?

Between 400 and 800 seated guests. Smaller formats get lost in the venue's scale; larger formats require splitting the space with auxiliary structures.

Has EB produced events here before?

Yes — we have produced corporate gala dinners for global clients including Hewlett Packard. The Gothic hall is one of the favourite venues for brands with premium narrative.
