Some nights the venue is rented out; check the flyers section. In contrast to other clubs the Melkweg has a keen eye for 'world music' trends. Mixed and relatively young audience.Times vary.

Amsterdams first true megaclub with a capacity of well over 5000, located out of city center in a industrial zone near Amstel station. The Zone breaks with Amsterdam club tradition in that it does not have a door policy, and doesn't allow tipping. This is happy house territory for a broad audience, with a spacious interior with organic shapes like oval bars and round walls, and a large dance floor. Balcony with comfortable sofa's and chairs. The second floor houses the Comfort Zone, a 'lounge' area. Studio 80
Rembrandtplein 17 (521 83 33). Smallish club on rowdy Rembrandtplein, with DJ's and live acts. Pretty laid-back atmosphere and staff with matching attitude, and a really good sound system. Due to its size the club might heat up a little during the course of the night, so plan ahead! Open Wed-Sun 11pm-4:30am/5:45am. [2 reviews, avg 5/10] Sugar Factory Lijnbaansgracht 238 (626 50 06). 
This 'night-theatre' close to Leidseplein sports a busy program with music, DJ's, poetry and performance. Sugar Factory usually stages two shows per evening, the early show being a stage performance, and the late show home to several popular dance nights, like for example Wicked Jazz Sounds. Relaxed and easy-going atmosphere, moderate prices for drink.Open daily except Tue 9pm-4am/5am. [no reviews, be the first]Trouw Wibautstraat 131 (463 77 88). 
Club-cum-restaurant Trouw houses in the former printing works of a major Dutch newspaper, and this shows - the club occupies all of 2000 m2 of pretty bare industrial space. Throw in a large and excellent soundsystem and there you have the Trouw no-frills club approach. Progressive electronic sounds are the main fare here. The restaurant serves up international streetfood, and is open until 2am on Saturday nights, which is pretty amazing by Amsterdam standards!Club open Fri-Sat 10pm-5am. Restaurant open Tue-Fri 18:30pm-11pm, Sat 18:30pm-2am. [1 reviews, avg 9/10] TWSTd Weteringschans 157 (320 70 30). 
Popular DJ bar a short walk from Leidseplein. What it lacks in size it makes up for in programming: seven days a week TWSTd hosts renowned spinners and new talent alike. Every year on Queensday TWSTd organizes a big outdoor DJ-party at the Weteringplantsoen just across the street.Open daily 6pm-1am/4am. [no reviews, be the first] |
