Melkweg

Located in the bustling heart of Amsterdam, the Melkweg (Milky Way) is one of the city's leading entertainment venues with two halls, a cinema, a theatre and a cafe - and a varied live programme.

Music at the Melkweg

The Melkweg boasts three outstanding halls to support their varied live music programme. The intimate Oude Zaal plays host to up-and-coming bands while The Max regularly welcomes established names. The latest addition is the Rabozaal: a modern, multifunctional hall connected to the Stadsschouwburg and ideal for seated concerts.

The Milky Way

Housed in an old dairy factory, the Melkweg played a major role in 1960s-counterculture Amsterdam. Alongside live music, the location is also home to theatre productions, films, exhibitions and regular dance events.
