About

The world-famous jazz venue BIMHUIS is a recognizable beacon on the IJ, close to the bustling city center of Amsterdam and within walking distance from Central Station. BIMHUIS features a modern and intimate concert hall with 250 seats, various break-out rooms, and a café-restaurant with spectacular views over the IJ. All spaces exude the unique BIMHUIS atmosphere and offer high-quality audiovisual facilities.

For online or hybrid events, we are also the ideal location. With seven remotely controlled HD cameras, we ensure top-quality video and audio recording. Slides from a presentation can also be live switched in the recording. Camera control and sound mixing take place in our control room. After the event, you will receive an HD video file of your presentation.

Are you looking for more spaces or larger halls than we can offer? We share one building with our colleagues from the Muziekgebouw, the Mövenpick hotel, and PTA, allowing us to organize events for up to 1,900 visitors together.

Concert hall
The arena setup of the seats around the stage creates an intimate atmosphere, regardless of the number of visitors to your event. The hall is equipped with top-quality audiovisual technology to showcase your presentation at its best and features a projection screen measuring 5.2 by 3.0 meters. Our technical team is eager to discuss additional options such as live internet broadcasting with you.

Café
The glass panoramic walls of our café provide a stunning view over the IJ and the city of Amsterdam. The space is very suitable as a break-out room due to its connection with the concert hall, or for coffee and lunch breaks during events in the concert hall. The available technical facilities make our café extremely suitable for presentations to groups of up to 80 people. The café can also be rented for atmospheric dinners and lively receptions. To make your event extra special, we can book renowned musicians and DJs from our network for you.

Meeting rooms
BIMHUIS has several smaller rooms that are ideal for meetings of up to 30 people, but can also be used as break-out rooms for your event in our concert hall. The Green Room offers a spectacular view over the IJ, and the Meeting Room is suitable for presentations due to the presence of a projector and sound system.

Catering
We are happy to provide your guests with a delicious lunch, something extra with coffee, or a luxurious dinner during your event. Ask about our carefully curated catering menu. Additionally, our chef is happy to create a menu tailored to your specific wishes.

Practical
BIMHUIS is within walking distance from Amsterdam CS and is easily accessible from the ring road. Your guests can use the Piet Heingarage located in the building.
