Het Depot, Concert hall and movie theater in Leuven, Belgium

Het Depot is a venue in Leuven with multiple performance spaces designed to host both live music concerts and film screenings. The rooms are arranged to accommodate performances ranging from small shows to larger productions.

Het Depot vzw was founded in 2003, after Leuven's music venues had disappeared around 2000 and the demand for a music centre entered the cultural policy plan in 2001. Concerts were first held in changing locations until the former Eden cinema on Martelarenplein became vacant in 2005. The hall closed for a thorough renovation from 2011 to 2012, with concerts moved to the old nurses' school on Kapucijnenvoer, and reopened in November 2012.

The name comes from the Dutch word for a warehouse: founders planned to house the centre in the Entrepot building on the Vaartkom and first called it "Het Entrepot", but a Bruges youth centre had just taken that name, so they chose the plainer "Het Depot". The name stayed when the venue moved to the former Eden cinema on Martelarenplein in 2005.

The venue sits at Martelarenplein with convenient access to public transportation and regular train connections throughout the region. Arriving early helps secure parking or allows time to reach the nearest station.

The name comes from the original plan to house the music centre in the monumental Entrepot building at Vaartkom. When a Bruges youth centre took the name Entrepot in 2003, Leuven chose the more popular word for a warehouse, Het Depot, and kept it after the 2005 move to Martelarenplein.
