About the venue
Shirin Eventzaal caters almost exclusively to the Afghan community in and around Nijmegen, and the layout shows it: a raised stage with a takht throne for the couple, a large open floor for the attan, and a separate corner for the shirini-khori where families formally confirm the engagement. The kitchen cooks Afghan and allows guests to bring their own deg for special dishes when the house recipe isn’t enough.
The hall seats 210 to 400 guests and has its own prayer room with wudu facilities for anyone who wants to pray between festivities. Manager Zahra Rahimi speaks Farsi/Dari and Dutch and usually replies within two days; free on-site parking and a sound system with no evening limit come with every booking.

Recommendations
6 recommendations“Our shirini-khori was genuinely set apart from the main hall, exactly what we wanted for the formal moment between the families. Zahra thought along about the layout, even though it was our first time.”
“The attan dance floor is big enough for a whole circle of men at once, we had not seen that at another hall in Nijmegen. Zahra replied within two days, exactly as promised.”
“The prayer room with wudu facilities was actually used during the celebration, not just a showpiece. My uncle could pray calmly between festivities without leaving the hall.”
“We had 380 guests and the hall never felt overcrowded, with plenty of space around the stage with the takht throne. The sound system had no evening limit, which let our party run late.”
“Our caterer brought their own deg for a special family dish and that was simply allowed alongside the house recipe, no discussion needed. Zahra spoke fluent Farsi with my mother-in-law about all the details.”
“Free on-site parking was a real relief with this many cars, no searching around the neighbourhood. The transition from the shirini-khori to the celebration itself ran smoothly without delay.”
