Theater Amsterdam is a renowned entertainment venue and nightclub located in the Houthavens district of Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Opened in 2014, the venue was originally conceived as a cutting-edge theatrical space, known in particular for hosting the international stage production "Anne," based on "The Diary of Anne Frank." Its architectural design, featuring a massive glass façade overlooking the waterfront and flexible interior setup, allowed it to seamlessly operate as both a large-scale theater and a high-profile nightclub for concerts, electronic dance events, and private parties. Over the years, Theater Amsterdam has gained a strong reputation within the city's nightlife and cultural scenes for its state-of-the-art AV technology, immersive experiences, and its capacity to host events accommodating thousands of attendees.

It has never changed its location but continually updates its technical infrastructure, adapting to the demands of both live theater and club nights by integrating advanced sound systems, lighting rigs, and modular stage designs. The cultural significance of Theater Amsterdam is tied to its ability to attract a diverse audience and foster creative collaboration between international acts and the local performing arts community.

It has also been a prominent venue for Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE), solidifying its role as a key node in the global electronic music network.
