Friday Night at the Van Gogh Museum

On Friday nights the Van Gogh Museum turns into a great night spot. With a bar in place, they dim the lights in their central hall, turn up the stereo, pull out some lounge chairs and invite DJs and live acts to perform.

Often carrying a theme corresponding to particular exhibitions or events within Amsterdam, expect not only DJs but live performances from experimental and contemporary musicians, dance and theatre.

Open from 18.00 to 22.00, it's perfect for unwinding from a week's work before kicking on elsewhere, into the night.
