Melkweg Reviews

These days it's more like an overpriced hospice where reformed punk bands go to die.

A household name in Amsterdam, great for concerts if you want to enjoy good sound quality.

Beautiful stage and many places where you as a small person can also see a lot. For example on the stairs or the balcony. The beer is unfortunately very expensive here.

My favourite alternative concert club. Can't wait to come back. Very polite staff, but expensive drinks.

always top programming and excellent staff, including security.

Cool place! Well arranged business. Lockers and self-charging place for your phone!

Nice location for rock shows with good sound.
The balconies are ideal for a nice view and you can just order drinks with cash and debit cards without having to buy those stupid coins.

The disadvantage is that the Melkweg is located in the middle of Amsterdam, which makes it difficult to park by car unless you have a few tens of euros left for the parking garages.
And the fact that you always have to buy a membership is still a bit of a strange story.
Therefore 4 stars. Furthermore, top for each other as far as I am concerned.

Nice building. Inside there are 3 concert halls ranging from 700 to 1500 people for the capacity. I enjoyed the sound of the concert (knowing that I saw a group of punk ... Sometimes the bass hurt!). Small anecdote: it is necessary to pay 4 euros of membership to the room to attend the concert in addition to the ticket.

Far too tight for if you want to get out of The Game again it was just a fight to get to my locker and even worse when you tried to get out.

Cool venue with a great Soundsystem, enjoyed the DNB party "Cheeky Monday" that my cousin recommended. Decent crowd for a post holiday Monday night

Beautiful rooms, very good lighting and the sound is great!

First stood in the rain for 45 minutes to come in, where another 15 minutes had to be waited until the coat was hung away. The staff is really nice and works fast, that's certainly not the reason.

The Melkweg has two relatively small but very cozy concert halls. There are two minor drawbacks to the Galaxy, there are actually just not enough lockers making it impossible for some to store belongings. Secondly, I personally find the compulsory subscription a bit nonsense.

What a great venue. Gibbs a great show to match. The restaurant in the front was good for drinks. Black Pumas rock

Really great here: good music, nice atmosphere and lots of fun

Super, at least in the Max. Too bad they do not serve coca cola. But yeah...

Yalla yalla party is an amazing party.
It's a nice place .

Best events there. (Cannabis cup) a must in Amsterdam

30 euro for a highly uninteresting Noah Kahan performance, a freezing concert hall, one beer and having to squeeze your jacket in a tiny locker (that you can't even open in between) is just really not worth the experience !!!

Great place to go out, beer not too expensive, cool concerts

Cool show Markus Schulz during ADE, very good Rabo room sound and friendly staff

Nice opportunity. 3 concert halls and a cinema room. Excellent programming

Techno Tuesday aka Dinsdag is gratis.(free entry) i like the unknown djs there. They play harder. I heart techno Tuesday

Has two concert halls, a cinema and a cafe. The old hall is actually my favourite concert venue in all of the Netherlands. The size and stage are perfect for intimate gigs in any genre.

Nice concert will. Not too big. Good program and nice price for tickets.

I was there for Onra concert. Sound quality could have been better.

Ideal place for a concert or a party! normal prices and nice people

Nice club, great night. The later the better in terms of atmosphere.

I went there on Techno Tuesday. I can't believe it's free. Great DJs and atmosphere!

Fantastic venue, saw Hot Chip there, reasonably priced drinks

Nice bands. Sound level fine, not too loud as is usually the case with concerts

I went to a band called AJR. To be honest, I've been waiting to see them since 2016 and I'm so glad that they finally came to the Netherlands...
Just one of my all time favorite bands haha

But that's the thing. Melkweg always brings the artists that haven't become massively popular yet, so the prices are low, but the shows are wayyyy more personal and I honestly enjoy them more than the huge-always-sold-out ones.

Melkweg just has a special place. 3 of my all time favorite artists have performed there so far and I'm just hoping there will be a lot more on the horizon.

Geiler Club !!
The atmosphere is great
the prices are just as good.
Much good live acts.
A must when in Amsterdam!

I have kp if it is forbidden but smoking there dope is not an issue. Have already smoked there with one of the pretty barmaids, so no big deal.

Deduction is only for the membership, which you have to buy additionally.
The prices are ok too.

Heino concert attended ........ a party from start to finish ........ everything well arranged ......... thanks!

Top location! Always go to the UK Hardhouse parties here with JP and Tom Harding

Great concert venue! They try to pressure you to pay for the toilets, but just say no thanks-it's a voluntary donation

It is neither too small nor too large, just right for an intimate atmosphere

What is there to say? Music you like? Just buy a ticket and go.

Great place for a party. Techno Tuesday is also recommended. Nice staff, good atmosphere inside.

One of the best places where you can watch a concert. Sound is good and the rooms are good. Tip: tap water at the bar is just free.

Amazing place to go to concerts. Sounds great and it's really close from everything.

Venue was nice but the beer tatsted like it was rotten or in the barrel for too long

Great rooms for small concerts. The scanners can use an upgrade at the door .. if you are outside all day and people walk past you because you do not get the tickets scanned it does cause some frustration. Small lockers for 2 euros, may be one euro less. Membership may also be reduced.

Was at the melkweg a few weeks ago and had a blast. You can smoke weed in the smoking room, max 5g at security. Sound system was great for techno tuesday and it was free....free!

I also went to shelter 2 days before after dekmental fez to see marcel dettman and melkweg was a much nicer place to be. We paid 16 euro for the shelter night too.

Great ventilation at melkweg. I was at the front and had nice cold air all night from the fans.

Gogol Bordello was super only it was very warm inside

Homeowners llll
Ho

Very professional staff. The bar on the second floor is good.

The room is too full at concerts. This used to be better.

Become a member for 4 euros to visit a concert? Ridiculous!

I have been here many times. Bizarrely unfriendly staff. Always.

Good room. Lots of bar, good sound. Usually just too busy when the house is sold out.

Over the years several concerts have been seen here. Hall and acoustics are very beautiful. Too bad you have to buy a membership.
The Melkweg is located in the only remaining factory building on the Amsterdam canals: a former sugar and, later, milk factory.

Great venue, friendly staff and sell Meantime London Ale.
