Paradiso
A converted church now used to host major bands and live multi-media events.
Mainly known as a venue for live music, at the weekend it hosts club nights with local and international DJ's and occasional live acts. Friday night is VIP club night (Vrijdag in Paradiso) from midnight onwards. Check out their listings on the website.
Tonight @ Hotel Arena
Although this hotel and club is a bit out of the centre, it's worth getting a tram to after a hard day's sightseeing. You will find a trendy, relaxed venue next to the pretty Oosterpark (Eastpark). Hotel Arena is a good place to stay if you are tempted by the fascinating Tropenmuseum, or the Dappermarkt street market a few minutes walk away.

Melkweg
The Melkweg, (Milky way) is not only very central, it also offers music, drama, movies, a weekend disco, a bar and a restaurant. Although this converted brewery looks huge, inside there are three smaller stages so avid fans can get close to their favourite band. The Melkweg is the main venue for. The Amsterdam Roots Festival, an annual world music event in mid-June, with acts from Senegal, Sudan and elsewhere performing until the early hours of the morning. The annual music and writing festival, Crossing Borders is also held here, (one amongst five other local venues involved), and it's worth coming to Amsterdam for this every November.
Mazzo
Mazzo is a very popular Friday nightclub in Amsterdam. Most of the locals have nothing but good things to say about it. Everyone reckoned it's chilled and the staff is friendly. It is not easy to spot: just a door with MA22O above it in bold black sign letters. Things don''t get going until midnight and there doesn't seem to be much of a dress code other than come in smart casual or trendy. Although this is probably one of the smallest clubs in town it has a definite charm and quality to it, which is lost on a lot of the bigger venues. When you leave, remember to tip the bouncers.
Escape
The Escape in the heart of Amsterdam used to be a cheesy disco but over the past 20 years it developed to a highly respected club in the cities nightlife. It is a vast place, with room for more than 1000 people. Regular appearances of DJs make the Escape to a well attended and popular location. The club attracts young people to a multimedia environment with exclusive parties, music and light decoration.
