Escape is one of Amsterdam's best-known big clubs, anchoring the Rembrandtplein nightlife strip with multiple rooms and decades of history on the same spot.
It's a proper large-scale club rather than an underground hideaway — production-led shows, big sound and a wide programme that ranges from electronic to mainstream.
What to expect
Expect a busy, mixed international crowd, several floors to wander between, and a programme that varies by night — check the agenda so you know which room is playing what.
Good to know
It's open mainly Fridays and Saturdays. The door can be selective when busy — smart-casual is fine, and buying tickets ahead saves a wait in the queue on Rembrandtplein.
