The space
400 m² in the centre, and the network to match

- Chairs, plus sofas

- Landscape screens
- 6
- Uplink

How many people fit
| Level | People | Use it for |
|---|---|---|
| Comfortable | 75 | Workshops, seated talks, school sessions, dinners |
| Usual full house | 150 | A full meetup — the default answer |
| Maximum | 300 | Very large formats only, and it is tight |
Plan around 75 when the format needs comfort — workshops, seated talks, school sessions. 150 is a normal full house. 300 is the ceiling, and it is genuinely tight; we will say so rather than sell you it.
The network
10 Gbit to the building with Starlink as failover. For a hackathon or a 24-hour format that is the difference between an event and an outage — and it is more than most Madrid venues can offer.
Screens
Nine Samsung displays, six of them landscape and usable for presentations. They are mounted inside gilt picture frames and normally show generative art — televisions disguised as paintings. They can carry your slides, but they are ambient displays, not conference panels.

Night and 24-hour formats
Noviciado is legally an association, which is what makes night events and hack-nights that run until morning possible here without a special arrangement.
