BIMHUIS

The BIMHUIS is a concert hall in Amsterdam, founded in 1974 and located on the Piet Heinkade on the IJ since 2005. From its early beginnings, the BIMHUIS has been known as a stage for contemporary jazz and improvised music. Its architecture is linked to that of the Muziekgebouw. A characteristic feature is the auditorium with the glass facade directly behind the stage, offering a panoramic view of the centre of Amsterdam.
