About THE OTHER SIDE
THE OTHER SIDE is a club and event venue at Rigakade 10 in Amsterdam's Houthavens, set in a converted former bicycle workshop. It was founded by Doeshka Vrede and Jasper Löwik and grew out of a plan made during the pandemic. The main room holds up to 1,000 people and a second room about 200, with an outdoor smoking area, for a total capacity of 1,100. The club says it was the first in the world to install an L-Acoustics L-ISA spatial sound system, a 14.1.5 setup that surrounds the dancefloor, and it runs the Full Cycle immersive live concert series around it. Its own club nights range across house, deep house, disco and funk, while promoters bring techno, melodic house and drum and bass. The ADE 2026 programme includes Seth Troxler, Gui Boratto, Henrik Schwarz and Oliver Koletzki.
