Sound, hours, capacity and booking.
An oversized L-Acoustics system, perfectly balanced for this room. There is more system here than the space strictly needs, so nothing ever has to strain. One of the best balanced systems in Amsterdam.
Yes. The booth is permanent: two Pioneer CDJ-3000s, a DJM-A9 and two Technics SL-1210 MK7 turntables. Your DJ only needs to bring music. You can patch in your own setup too, just let us know and we'll have it ready.
Not permanently. On Fridays and Saturdays we run club nights, and during ADE and Kingsday the room goes into full club mode. The rest of the time it is an event venue.
Friday and Saturday until 03:00. Sunday through Thursday until 01:00.
Two hundred and fifty guests standing, with the terrace included. Seated it is 50 to 60.
Friday is €495 and Saturday €595 excl. VAT, with a bar guarantee of €1.500 excl. VAT either way. Thursday is €295, with a bar guarantee of €1.000. Every other day, Sunday included, is €250 for the venue, with a bar guarantee of €750. What you spend at the bar counts towards the guarantee, so a busy night clears it by itself. For dinner, catering and extra staff we make a tailored proposal.
Click a free date in the calendar and fill in the form. We'll hold it as an option in your name for fourteen days and get in touch.
Alongside the nights we programme ourselves, the room is open to people who want to do something with it. An exhibition, a workshop, a pop-up in the kitchen, an open mic, a listening session, a fundraiser, or something that does not have a name yet.
It does not have to be a finished plan. A first attempt is welcome; that is rather the point.
You hear from us if we think it is a match.
