Multi-Level Bar with Auditorium Seating and Chill-Out Space.
about this space
This unique bar features a multi-level layout that was formerly a lecture hall, now transformed into an auditorium with tiered seating. The mezzanine offers a relaxing viewing area overlooking the bar, which is crafted from the original lecture desk. The seating arrangement has been innovatively repurposed to create a comfortable lounge atmosphere while maintaining a vibrant social environment. The original windows fill the space with natural light, making it suitable for both work and casual gatherings. As evening approaches, velvet curtains are drawn, lighting is dimmed, and the venue transitions into a late-night bar. The space is designed to accommodate up to 200 people and includes various amenities such as a security system, kitchen, furniture, sound and video equipment, and internet access.

who it suits
Brand Scale
This space fits brands with a 10 to 40 person team, three or more years of trading, and an existing community they can actually fill a 200 capacity room with. At 213 sqm across a tiered auditorium, a mezzanine and a bar built from the original lecture desk, this is an event-led venue rather than a shop, so the brands that get value from it are those with a mailing list, a press contact sheet or a local Amsterdam following. In our experience the profile that gets the most from this space is a mid-size fashion, footwear or lifestyle label running a launch night or a community moment alongside a wider campaign. Where we see mismatches is when a solo founder or a two person studio books it hoping for walk-in retail sales in Oosterparkbuurt, which is residential and cultural rather than a shopping street. Large heritage houses needing a formal, white-box spaces in Amsterdam equivalent for a controlled press day will also find the fixed bar and seating too characterful to neutralise.
Aesthetic Fit
Design-forward, slightly academic and club-adjacent brands read best here: streetwear, technical outerwear, eyewear, fragrance, footwear, contemporary menswear and independent publishing. The room already has a strong point of view, with tiered lecture seating, original windows pouring in daylight, velvet curtains and a dimmable night mode, so brands with an intellectual or subcultural narrative can lean into it rather than fight it. Product that sits on plinths, garment racks and counters works; product that needs a seamless white wall and even museum lighting does not. What will not work is minimalist luxury with a gallery-blank house style, bridal, or fine jewellery brands requiring high-security cases and quiet, controlled sightlines. The multi-level layout and social bar energy pull attention outward, which undercuts any presentation built on stillness and negative space.
Best Use Cases
First choice is a launch party or cocktail reception: the bar, kitchen, sound and video equipment and 220 occupancy mean you are dressing an operational venue rather than building one from nothing. Second is a collection preview or talk-format brand presentation, where the tiered auditorium seating gives every guest a sightline to the runway or panel without hired rostra. Third is a content studio day, using the daylight windows in the morning and the curtain-and-dim setup for night-look footage in the same booking. Fourth is a creative workshop or industry networking event, with the mezzanine lounge working as a breakout and the fitting rooms and stock room supporting sampling. Fifth is a sample sale, viable given counters, fitting rooms, garment racks, lift and parking, though footfall here is local rather than passing. Sixth is a wholesale appointment day, which functions but underuses the room; our activation service can help decide whether the format justifies the venue.
Budget Signal
This sits in the mid tier for Amsterdam and represents strong value per guest given the capacity and the fit-out already in place. Compared with a canal-belt or Negen Straatjes temporary retail space at similar sqm, you are paying less and getting a licensed bar, kitchen, AV, furniture, lighting, CCTV, air conditioning and a lift included, which removes several production line items. Against hotel event rooms nearby such as Hotel Arena or Pillows, the rate is competitive and the character is far stronger, without the per-head catering minimums hotels usually attach. Co-working event rooms come cheaper but cap out well below 200 guests and rarely allow branding; shared pop-up formats cost less again but give you no evening licence and no control of the room. Brands at this stage typically find the saving on build and hire justifies the rate, and the budget calculator will show where that lands against a raw shell.
