Unforgettable, vibrant, inspiring, perfectly curated, and truly amazing

I attended the Web3 afterparty at the Tobacco Theater in Amsterdam and was genuinely impressed. The venue blends historic charm with modern creativity—exposed brick, moody lighting, and a layout perfect for social events. Bar service was efficient, drinks were good, and prices felt fair. The Tobacco Theater is an ideal spot for cultural, creative, or tech-focused events—sophisticated, edgy, and unforgettable.

Actief meedenken

Voor een klant de locatie voor themafeest gebruikt. Voortraject was prettig duidelijk en goede info. Men denkt actief mee in oplossingen en creativiteit. Locatie: super goed, mooi en heeft al veel techniek standaard aanwezig (is ook een theater).
