Club Nouvelle

Club Nouvelle is a club in Amstelveen, on Touwslagerij, built around a clear idea: it is an evening out for people aged 30 and up. The sources describe it as a casual place where the hits of past and present are played, and the programme follows that brief closely rather than chasing a younger crowd.

The week has a recognisable shape. Friday and Saturday nights carry most of the programming, with party formats that return again and again. The 30+ Dance 4 All parties are a regular fixture, joined by themed editions such as Red and Black, Pure Club Vibes with 90s and 00s music, and a Ladies Night version of Club Deluxe. Disco Train nights revisit the 70s, 80s and 90s, while Latin Blast brings Latin music with a Bachata edition in the mix, and Club Caribbean is also held in the venue. Sunday afternoons have their own rhythm, starting at four in the afternoon, with The Sunday Dancing hosted by DJ Michel de Grote and I Love Music on Sunday with guest DJs.

Live music has a firm place too. The Live Night evenings feature bands, with names such as Sabakoe and Cache Royale on the listings, and there are foxtrot afternoons with bands including The Sunshine Boys, The Murphy Jets and Idem Dito. Seasonal events fill out the calendar, from a Christmas party to an Old and New year celebration. The sources do not give a history of the building or the club, so what comes through is its current character: a dance floor and band stage for an adult crowd in Amstelveen, with a mix of DJ nights and live acts.
