INFO

Taets Art & Event Park is a prominent and multifunctional event venue located on the historic Hembrugterrein in Zaandam, just outside Amsterdam in the Netherlands. Established in the early 2010s, Taets occupies a collection of former industrial buildings that date back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, originally part of a Dutch military and munitions factory complex. The transformation of these robust, high-ceilinged structures into a modern event space reflects a broader trend in the Netherlands of repurposing industrial heritage sites for contemporary cultural uses.
Taets Art & Event Park has since become known not only as a large-capacity nightclub but also as a venue for art exhibitions, corporate events, fairs, and festivals. Its reputation is built on both the scale and flexibility of its various halls and studios, which range from elegant galleries to raw, warehouse-like spaces that can accommodate thousands of guests. This adaptability has made Taets a magnet for avant-garde cultural programming, creative installations, and international nightlife.
Culturally, the venue is significant for its role in revitalizing the Hembrugterrein and acting as a bridge between Zaandam’s industrial past and its creative future. Over time, the venue has expanded its footprint within the site, updating and integrating new buildings to suit dynamic event needs while carefully preserving the architectural integrity and historical ambiance of the original complexes. There has been no major change in the physical location, but incremental renovations and expansions have continued to elevate its facilities, sound systems, and lighting to meet the demands of world-class events.
Notable artists who have performed at Taets Art & Event Park include international DJs such as Armin van Buuren, Paul Kalkbrenner, Boris Brejcha, and Tiësto, as well as celebrated local talents like Joris Voorn, Reinier Zonneveld, and KiNK. The venue has also hosted performances from live acts like HVOB, Nils Frahm, and underground electronic collectives such as Dekmantel and Awakenings, helping to cement its reputation as a hub for eclectic and cutting-edge music experiences in the Netherlands.
