Concert Halls in Amsterdam
Amsterdam has much to offer in terms of entertainment. Well known for its party and music scene, it's visited by many tourists interested not only in sightseeing but in a quality cultural experience, as well. One of the most famous concert halls in Amsterdam is the Concertgebouw with its Grote Zaal or ‘Main Hall’ which can seat up to 2,000 people, and its great acoustics. Another interesting venue is the Melkweg – a huge entertainment centre, which is more than a concert hall, and features a theatre, a cinema and bars. Great concerts often take place at Heineken Music Hall and at Muziek Gebouw aan het IJ – a modern concert hall where bands from all over the world perform. If you want to visit the place where such celebrities as The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Nirvana and Nick Cave have given their concerts, go to Paradiso.
