Concept & Event Design
Spatial narrative, thematic direction and guest journey — every room composed from the first sketch to the final arrangement.
Opium Productions
Where concept
Where concept
becomes event.
Full-scale production rooted in luxury entertainment — DJ programming and live performance, fire dancers and character models, Funktion-One sound, LED walls, bar and hospitality, brand activations and private functions. At Opium Lounge or wherever you need us.
Opium Productions translates brief into atmosphere — weaving aesthetics, performance and precision for luxury brands, corporate clients, private hosts and creative partners. The same sensibility that defines Opium Lounge travels with us to every location.

The Flagship Venue
Six rooms, one production canvas
Opium Lounge in De Waterkant is both the flagship venue and the laboratory — six distinct environments where activations, shoots and events are continuously refined against the highest standard.
The Champagne Garden
Living green walls, a sunburst-framed mirror and white lantern light — candlelit bistro tables beneath draped curtains for sundown rituals and open-air entertaining.
The Alligator Cocktail Bar
Pressed-metal walls, dark wood shelving and warm lantern light — the natural setting for a branded pour, bespoke cocktail programme or considered welcome reception.
The Zebra Lounge
The main performance environment — 5m × 2.5m LED wall, full Pioneer DJ configuration and an intelligent lighting rig at the pulse of every production night.
The Saloon
A Western-African VIP room of deliberate intimacy — reserved for high-value guests, artist hosting and experiences that demand privacy.
The Vault
Ornate mirror, geometric walls and a premium back bar — whisky, champagne and cigar rituals in a room with the character of a private club.
Garden Champagne Room
A private annex for smaller activations, content days and styled set builds — adaptable, discreet and self-contained.
