Artistic mission

The Concertgebouw is an international music and performing arts centre whose programme takes authenticity into account, at whose heart lies the vocal and instrumental tradition, and which acts as a laboratory for creation. The basic principle underlying the programming is creativity. There is room for music of all styles and eras, and also for other disciplines: contemporary dance, art, literature and architecture.

Services

In addition to its own artistic programme, the Concertgebouw makes its accommodation available to others for
events of all types. This includes the Concert Hall (1289 seats), the Chamber Music Hall (maximum 320 seats), and
the various reception rooms with their panoramic view of the historical city centre. In fact the whole building can be used for congresses, colloquia, product launches, receptions, stage presentations and much more. The Concertgebouw offers you support in the organisation of your event.

The Concertgebouw is a venue at which seminars, receptions, meetings, colloquia, product presentations, conferences and business events can be held all the year round. The various areas of the building (the Concert Hall, the Chamber Music Hall, Forums 6 and 7, the Studios and the Foyers) are all available.
