About

A long-running music venue in central Amsterdam, known for its wide range of electronic events, strong production, and mix of club nights and live shows.

Melkweg is a well-established venue located near Leidseplein, housed in a former dairy factory that has been part of Amsterdam’s music culture for decades. Unlike smaller underground clubs, Melkweg operates as a multi-room space that hosts everything from concerts and club nights to festivals and special electronic events. Electronic music at Melkweg often leans toward techno, house, and crossover styles, depending on the promoter and night. The venue attracts a broad crowd, from locals to international visitors, and offers a more accessible entry point into Amsterdam’s club scene. With solid sound, professional production, and a central location, Melkweg works well for larger electronic events that sit between club culture and live performance.
