About RADION
RADION is a techno club in Amsterdam Nieuw-West, in the former ACTA building at Louwesweg 1 in Slotervaart. The brutalist complex was built between 1966 and the early 1970s as a dental clinic and housed the Academic Centre for Dentistry Amsterdam until 2010. RADION has been based there since 2014, in former classrooms stripped back to raw concrete, and holds a 24-hour licence. Club nights run on Friday and Saturday from 23:00, usually until 07:00, across the main room and the Bovenkamer.
Sound is central to the club: the main room runs a rebuilt VOID Stasys system with extra low cabinets, while the Bovenkamer uses Prof Sound horn stacks in use since the early 1990s over L-Acoustics SB218 subs. The programme is built with collectives and promoters such as Vault Sessions, Labyrinth, GEGEN and Frenzy, with a run of ADE nights each October. RADION also hosts Techno Yoga sessions, runs an in-house Club Care team and released its first compilation album in January 2026.
