Highlights of Melkweg
As one of Amsterdam’s premier venues, the Melkweg regularly features world-renowned artists, including Prince, U2, the Arctic Monkeys, and Nirvana. There have also been several references to the venue in pop culture music, such as the Cracker song, ‘Eurotrash Girl’ and Church’s ‘Under the Milky Way”.
The venue consists of 6 separate spaces. The Max is the largest concert hall, while the Old Hall is the oldest concert hall. The Rabo features theater productions and films, while the Theater Hall offers an intimate space for lesser-known artists. The Cinema hosts private film viewings, and the exhibition space is utilized for art exhibitions.

Along with concerts and events by internationally-known DJs, the Melkweg also has nightclub options. Cheeky Monday is a great way to get over your Monday blues, and Techno Tuesday is also a local fave. Every Saturday, Melkweg hosts one of Holland’s largest R&B and hip-hop events.
Melkweg is one of the only clubs in Amsterdam open past 3 am. On weekends, they don’t close until 5 am, so it is a very popular late-night haunt. Be aware that on top of the entrance fee, a membership fee is required to enter the facility. Visitors can buy a temporary or annual membership.
