Step into Paradiso, the converted church that has become one of Amsterdam's best-known stages for live music and club nights. Catch a gig from the balcony or dance through its different rooms until the early hours.

📖

Full description

Paradiso is a former church in Amsterdam-Centrum that now hosts live gigs and club nights across two rooms, with a balcony that gives a good view of the stage. The programme is eclectic, from touring bands to large themed parties, and reviewers praise the atmosphere, the friendly staff and fairly priced bar.

Concerts typically start in the evening, while Saturday nights run until 04:00 with club events. One recurring complaint is that a membership has to be bought on top of a concert ticket.

Good to know

  • head for the balcony for a clear view of the stage
  • check whether your date is a concert or a club night, as the crowd differs completely.

Reviews

Great venue. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Good bar, reasonable prices and a great view from the balcony. Excellent atmosphere all round. Fantastic gig last night (Divine Comedy) and I'd happily go again. Trouble is, I live in the UK but I've done it once so I can do it again!
