Maassilo is an iconic nightclub and event venue located in Rotterdam, Netherlands. The venue occupies a former grain silo constructed in 1910, a testament to the city’s extensive industrial heritage. Originally built as a grain storage facility on the Maas River, the building underwent several transformations throughout the twentieth century before eventually ceasing its industrial operations.

In the early 2000s, recognizing the cultural potential of the cavernous, concrete structure, local leaders and visionaries initiated a redevelopment project that would convert it into a multipurpose nightlife and arts hub. Retaining much of its original raw, industrial aesthetic, Maassilo offers a unique backdrop for club nights, concerts, and festivals, distinguished by high ceilings, exposed steelwork, and massive open floors. Over the past two decades, Maassilo has established itself as one of the Netherlands’ preeminent dance music venues, celebrated both for its commitment to underground culture and its contribution to Rotterdam’s dynamic nightlife scene.

The club is known for hosting a diverse array of events, spanning techno, house, drum & bass, and other genres, as well as large-scale parties, live performances, and immersive festival line-ups. It has played a crucial role in Rotterdam’s cultural revitalization, attracting music lovers from across the country and beyond with its cutting-edge programming and atmospheric setting. While Maassilo’s structure has remained largely true to its industrial origins, investments in sound and lighting technology have ensured state-of-the-art experiences for guests and performers alike.

Its multi-room design and expansive capacity allow for both intimate gatherings and large-scale raves, making it adaptable to various event formats. The venue's strong local reputation is matched by international acclaim, contributing to Rotterdam’s growing stature as a foreground city in Europe’s electronic music circuit. Notable artists who have performed at Maassilo include international stars such as Carl Cox, Charlotte de Witte, Jeff Mills, Adam Beyer, Nina Kraviz, and Richie Hawtin, as well as acclaimed Dutch talents like Speedy J, Secret Cinema, Joris Voorn, Benny Rodrigues, and Michel de Hey.

The venue has also hosted nights headlined by Amelie Lens, Dave Clarke, Len Faki, Marcel Dettmann, Paula Temple, and Drumcode label showcases, further cementing its status as a heavyweight in the global nightlife landscape.
