Club Annie is a new venue opened by the Melkweg, the Amsterdam institution, in October 2026. It sits at Lijnbaansgracht 238, in the building across from the Melkweg's home that was long known as the Sugar Factory. With this move, the Melkweg takes over a space that already had a reputation as a place for nights out in the city centre and turns it into a second room of its own. The tone the organisers describe is playful and a little provocative. The 3voor12 report on the opening quotes the plan for the club as sexy, flirty and a little bit dirty, which sets it apart from the more traditional concert hall format. The programme is built around a dense schedule, with events planned from Wednesday to Sunday and a stated ambition of around a thousand events, mixing live shows with club nights. One of the first listings tied to the name is an Annie's ADE weekender on 25 October 2026, with a line up that includes Club Annie, KAHORSA, Myss Keta and Sim0ne, which places the venue within Amsterdam Dance Event week from the start. That timing fits the venue's focus on late nights, electronic music and the kind of crossover acts that move between stage and dance floor. Because Club Annie is so recently opened, its long term character is still taking shape, but its backing by the Melkweg and its location on the Lijnbaansgracht make it one to watch among Amsterdam's central music venues.
