did you hear about creative hub Sexyland Amsterdam yet?
Sexyland Amsterdam is your a new clubhouse in Amsterdam North where you want to spend your nights with your friends. The name will make you think of a place to go to for ‘exciting’ activities, but it’s nothing like that at all. Okay a bit exciting, but you won’t see panties flying around the room and you can leave your one Dollar bills at home ;-). Sexyland Amsterdam is an event location that has a different owner every day (356 days a year) who can do whatever he wants. This provides the best events and something completely different every day!
From EDUCATIONAL WORKSHOPS TO food parties at SEXYLAND AMSTERDAM
Last week there was a huge food party at Sexyland Amsterdam. You could go to a fried ‘dinner dance’ with unlimited cafeteria snacks and fries, live performances and lots of old Dutch games. Other days you could have gone to a workshop writing love letters, a master class playing chess and listen to entrepreneurs who tell about their fucked up moments during Fuckup Nights.
There are even events where you can learn from. One day there was an event where you could learn how to ‘clean’ your laptop and an event where you could philosophize about everything that concerns us today. Check the website of Sexyland to see which events will be held in the coming months. Tip: there are even a few days open so if you have a great idea you can have your own event too;-).
To come in you need a membership that’s valid for a week and costs only €2,50. For some other events you need a ticket which often costs around € 10, but it is always worth it. At least for the times that I went there. There’s also an opportunity to get drinks and sometimes even food. Sounds like the perfect night right?
Have fun!
