Paradiso is a venue in a former church in the heart of Amsterdam. But we are also more than 1,200 events at several locations throughout the city, hosting over 600,000 people annually. Our venue isn't just for music. We offer a varied program, from political debates to fashion shows, and from scientific conferences to book presentations: for almost fifty years we have been the place where artists, performers, opinion makers and the audience meet.
Paradiso's team possess a boundless curiosity and an immense love for music. We share the common desire of being a venue that makes artists and visitors feel recognised. We are proud to support artists by offering them a podium in all stages of their development – literally. They move from our Upstairs Hall to Tolhuistuin to our Main hall. Because fewer things bring people closer together than the shared enjoyment of a special performance.
Arts and culture are not entities on their own. The greater the connection to what is happening in our society, the greater the impact of the artists' messages. With this in mind, you won't be surprised to learn we do everything in our power to create a sustainable and socially responsible future for Paradiso. The way we do this is threefold: through our locations, through our programming and through our HR management.
Paradiso wants to be both a high-profile cultural temple and the living room of young Amsterdam. We continuously pay attention to safety, accessibility, equality and sustainability. Discrimination and incitement to hatred and violence are not permitted.
