A CULTURAL CLUB GEM IN THE HEART OF AMSTERDAM

Bitterzoet is one of Amsterdam’s most beloved underground venues, where culture, community and nightlife collide. Hidden just steps from Central Station, this intimate spot is known for hosting everything from live funk bands to hip-hop showcases and alternative DJ nights.

The venue has a raw, artistic vibe—graffiti-covered walls, low lighting and a cozy mezzanine overlooking the dance floor. It’s the kind of place where you come for the music and stay for the energy.
