DE MEIDEN van toen

De Landing is a small theatre at Uilenstede 106 in Amstelveen, run as the second location of Schouwburg Amstelveen. It is described as the new cultural hotspot at Uilenstede, and its own programme leans on an intimate setting: cabaret, drama, live music, youth theatre and film all share the same house. That mix gives it a different feel from a dedicated music club, since a concert here sits next to stand up and plays rather than defining the venue's identity. Its role grew considerably because of the renovation of the main Schouwburg. While that building is being rebuilt, all performances and films from the Schouwburg programme take place in De Landing, which makes it the place where the town's regular theatre audience currently goes. The venue is presented as the location of Schouwburg Amstelveen for the 2026 to 2027 season, a step up from its earlier supporting position. The available sources do not give a detailed history of the building itself, so its story is mostly tied to this arrangement with the Schouwburg. On the music side, the listings include chamber music evenings, such as a series devoted to piano trios under the title A Musical Landscape, alongside comedy bookings like the Double Dutch show with Derek Mitchell. The venue also works as a daytime space. On certain weekdays the foyer opens from late morning until the late afternoon, so students and locals can study, work on projects together, talk or just sit with a coffee, which suits its position in the Uilenstede area. The theatre also has accessibility provisions for people with reduced mobility.
