De Nieuwe Anita · Amsterdam-West • 5-15 €

Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ · Amsterdam-Oost
Three cellists tackle the big, loud feeling of anger: where it comes from, what it sounds like, and how to let it out without wrecking the room. Wordless, funny, and surprisingly cathartic for ages 6 and up.
Browse Amsterdam neighborhood by neighborhood, get ideas just for you, or ask me anything.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.
You can browse these pages without an account. Sign in to save activities and help me learn your taste, so future suggestions have a better starting point.
Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
