◈ Amsterdam's guide to anything and everything loud • launching autumn 2026

Find where it gets loud in the city

The city's got EDM covered. This is for the other half — rock, metal, punk, hardcore, noise and industrial techno. Every gig, squat show, club night, metal pub, DJ set and midnight screening, pulled into one guide instead of scattered across ten.

It's early days — the listings aren't live yet. Leave your email and you'll be first through the door.

◈ What is loudamsterdam?

A city guide
for the loud
half of town

The tourist maps stop at the canals. We keep going — into the basements, squats and back rooms where the amps are too big for the space. No algorithm, no ads: just the people who actually show up, telling you where to be tonight.

Curated by ears, not clicks
Every pick comes from someone who was in the room — no paid placement, no promoted posts, no feed deciding your Friday for you.
We don't just list it — we make it
Loud Amsterdam books and hosts its own gigs, club nights and screenings too. Same crew behind the guide and the guest list.
◈ For the crowd

What you'll find

For everyone who shows up — the night, the room, the record, the noise
Festivals
All-dayers and weekenders in and around the city — worth planning your summer around.
Concerts & events
Gigs, tours and one-offs — stadium metal to squat-basement hardcore.
Venues & bars
The rooms, the metal pubs and the late-night dives — mapped across the city.
Parties & DJs
Club nights and crews — industrial techno through to doom and EBM.
Screenings
Music docs, cult films and midnight showings at the city's loud cinemas.
Shops & records
Record stores, band merch, instruments and collectibles — where to spend before the show.
◈ For the scene

If you make the noise

Not just for the crowd — a home base for the people making the racket
Music labels
The independent imprints putting the city's noise on wax — who's releasing what, and where to send your demo.
Radio & shows
Local radio slots, online shows and podcasts — the voices keeping it loud between the gigs.
Studios & gear
Recording and rehearsal rooms, plus the amp techs and repair shops that keep it all running.
Locations
Squats, practice spaces and the DIY spots that keep the scene alive off the grid.
Bands in town
The local acts to know — who's active, who's touring, who just put out a record.
Connect musicians
Looking for a drummer, a support slot, a rehearsal room or a split 7"? A board to find bandmates, book each other and start something loud.
Not just a listing

We don't just
list the noise —
we make it

We're a promoter too. Loud Amsterdam books and hosts its own gigs, club nights and screenings — DIY bills in squats and back rooms the bigger venues won't touch. Subscribers get first word and a spot on the guest list.

◈ Meet the organizer

Mr. RÖCK!

Organizer & resident DJ

He picks the records and books the noise. If it's loud and it's happening in Amsterdam, odds are he had a hand in it. Come say hi — and tell him what you want to hear.
