Burnova

Burnova is a banquet hall and hookah lounge on the bank of the Neva, in a standalone building with panoramic windows overlooking the water and the cable-stayed bridge. The atmosphere is relaxed and festive: large windows let in plenty of light, and in the evening the space easily turns into a venue for a lively party. The area is 85 square meters with 3.5-meter ceilings, so even with full seating it never feels cramped.

The main hall holds up to 60 people, with banquet seating for up to 45 guests. It has a bar counter, soft sofas, banquet furniture, a projector with a large screen, professional speakers with two wireless microphones, karaoke, light and music effects, and a PlayStation 4. The hall also has a microwave and a refrigerator. Catering options are plentiful: order from a restaurant or café menu, hire a caterer, bring your own food, or cook yourself — a kitchen is provided for that. The bar is open with a bartender on duty, but you can also bring your own alcohol.

For corporate events, the venue is above all convenient for its freedom of format: you can hold a banquet, a conference, a New Year party, a company birthday or an informal party. Noise is allowed after 23:00, and the standalone building spares you from neighbors and extra restrictions. Guests will not crowd at the entrance: there are three restrooms, and turnkey organization helps settle most questions on site.
