November Clubbing in Amsterdam
November is a great month to go clubbing and dancing. It is cold outside, it is warm and nice in the pubs and clubs, and the atmosphere is joyful, since everybody is waiting for the Christmas holidays that are coming. There are a few places in Amsterdam that are great for some evening entertainments and they are all offering great music and reasonable prices.
Among the good places for a nice evening in Amsterdam this month is the concert hall Het Concertgebouw. There one could attend an opera or an orchestra concert of classic or jazz music. The place offers also an orchestra made of young people, and there are also free lunch concerts and Sunday Morning Concerts. For those who have more time, there is a Concert Hall tour before the Sunday morning concerts.
Now, those who are more into the wild clubbing than the orchestra concerts, there is the club De Kring. This is usually a members club, but now it is open for clubbing during the weekends. Next to it is the Club Up, which has a separate entrance. Both places are great for parties and thus there is often a queue outside. The music here is great and the atmosphere is joyful. The program of the club is given on the club’s website. The place opens at 23 o’clock and works until 4 o’clock in the morning.
For those who love the underground music, there is the place De Nieuwe Anita, which is a great bar with good music. Downstairs, there is a venue for an alternative music, special dance parties and underground films. The place is famous as the club where the good bands play just before they get too famous to go clubbing. The people who love to come here are usually artists and students, and real adventurers. The club is placed on Frederik Hendrikstraat in Amsterdam and is open after 20 o’clock.
Another interesting club to consider is the Chicago Social Club, which is placed in the center. Here are organized great house, hip hop and techno parties, but this is not a big club, rather it has an intimate atmosphere and one dance floor only. The place comes with a large bar serving cocktails. There is an entrance on Fridays and Saturdays and no entry fee for the rest of the weekdays.
Those who love alternative music should try the independent music club De OCCII. They are known for playing punk and experimental music, hardcore and often techno. The music played is very loud and the live concerts organized there could be quite noisy. The place is an independent event and concert hall, which is run by volunteers. Sometimes there are indie and electronic, as well as dance parties. The prices are just right and the bands performing are great. The music club De OCCII is located on Amstelveenseweg and its working time depends on the event organized.
