    Creative with clay

    By ASV Gay @ Crea, Nieuwe Achtergracht 170, Amsterdam

    Time to unleash your inner Picasso! We're going to get creative with clay at CREA. Whether you want to make a beautiful mug, an ashtray, or *cough cough* an anatomical sculpture, anything goes, nothing's required. Wear clothes that can get dirty, and just let your imagination run wild. Afterwards we'll head over to CREA Café for a drink, so stick around!

    This is an open activity, so feel free to bring someone who doesn't know A.S.V.Gay yet. Never been before? Perfect opportunity to get to know A.S.V.Gay.

    NEW New Nickerie

    Theater de Richel, Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal 282, Amsterdam

    A Surinamese spaceship destined for a new planet, a journey with glamour, comedy and music

    Lashaaawn

    You find yourself on the spaceship heading to this almost utopic destination.

    In the year 2099 the country of Suriname has taken over the world. (Kind of what the Spice girls did in 1996 but with even more political implications.)

    The multi-billion dollar oil & gas investment in 2024 transformed the small former Dutch colony to the #1 economic superpower on the planet.

    Beyond their Earthly success they’ve acquired a new planet and dubbed it: NEW New Nickerie. With a similar tropical climate, universal healthcare, 3-day work week, pension age of 32 and mansions for everyone.

    Your charming host is also the pilot, co-pilot, cabin crew, on-flight musical entertainment and space marshall. When the ship accidentally ends up in a part of the galaxy hidden by the government an adventure starts where you slowly uncover an inconvenient truth about the Surinamese empire.

    STOMP is coming back to the lodge and we want you there!!!
    ​What the heeeell is line dancing?
    ​Easy stuff – line dancing means everyone on the floor learns the same steps together: same direction, same sequence, all moving as one. Beginner-friendly! You'll pick it up faster than you think 🥾

    ​Our playlist goes way beyond country: pop hits, hip hop throwbacks, queer favorites, and anything that makes you wanna sing along and stomp a lil' harder 🎶

    ​Who are the sexy people on stage?
    ​Well that'll be CJ, Justin, Aisling, and Hud! They are part of STOMP, a queer-founded line dance collective rooted in the legacy of LGBTQ cowboy culture and the Black and BIPOC communities who shaped country and dance culture as we know it.

    ​STOMP believes queer folk and their allies deserve a space for community dance and we're here to make it easy, fun, and sexy!!!

    Queer Men Sharing Circle

    City center, Amsterdam

    Opportunity for Queer Men to join our monthly meetups in Amsterdam. We’ll talk about love, intimacy, shame, friendships, family, self acceptance, body image and much more. The goal is to create a safe, supportive space where everyone can share openly and feel less alone. Not a group therapy, just open conversations about the challenges we face in daily life. Meetings are casual, not led by a coach, and simply about connecting and listening to each other.

    Step into a playful sex-positive FLINTA world of pleasure, community, and collective care.

    Ari Ochoa aka Alfa Hoer, iAra Banchik Almasia and sex-positive FLINTA community

    OUT LOUD, TOGETHER is an immersive theatre experience for curious audiences seeking intimacy, experimentation, and different ways of coming together. Created by Ari Ochoa and iAra Banchik Almasia, the work emerges from the FLINTA sex-positive community and the BOTTOMsUP universe.

    The performance invites audiences into a consent-based space where pleasure, boundaries, negotiation, and care become live performance language. You choose how close to come, whether to watch, listen, move, or participate.

    Built from real community stories, workshops, and collective research, OUT LOUD, TOGETHER transforms the theatre into a shared space where vulnerability, connection and agency can coexist.

    Raw, warm, provocative, and deeply human, OUT LOUD, TOGETHER approaches intimacy not as spectacle, but as something created collectively in real time through drag, humor and testimony.

    Sytze sleurt je mee op reis naar de iconische club RoXY

    Sytze Bouma

    Drag Me [2] RoXY is een sprankelende drag monoloog over de beroemdste nachtclub van Amsterdam. Een spannende en intieme ode aan het “tweede thuis” van een hele generatie nachtvlinders. Wereldberoemde sterren, uitzinnige outfits, spraakmakendeperformances, een berucht deurbeleid: RoXY was een iconische vrijplaats.

    Dertig jaar later hunkert acteur en drag performer Sytze Bouma ernaar om RoXY terug tot leven te wekken. Met een stapel interviews met RoXY-gangers onder de arm en met behulp van personages, performances, oude foto’s en knallende house muziek onderzoektSytze wat er vandaag over is van het “paradijselijk toevluchtsoord” dat RoXY was. Een even beeldende als opzwepende solo over het verlangen naar een queer thuis en een uitnodiging om oude vrijheid nieuw leven in te blazen. Drag Me [2] RoXY voert je mee naarde illustere club, die in de zomer van 1999 in vlammen opging.

  12. Queer Choir Amsterdam

    Concertgemaal, Landsmeerderdijk 213, Amsterdam

    Queer Choir Amsterdam

    Concertgemaal, Landsmeerderdijk 213, Amsterdam

    Het Queer Choir Amsterdam is een artistiek initiatief en een veilige ruimte waar unieke identiteiten en stemmen gevierd en gehoord worden. Queer Choir Amsterdam voert eigen composities uit -geschreven door de koorleden en gearrangeerd door dirigent Vera Morais- waarin soundscapes, improvisatie en publieksparticipatie vaak een rol spelen.


    Tijdens de repetities en optredens geven de leden van het koor uiting aan ideeën over hoe hun meest wenselijke toekomst eruitziet en aan verhalen die ze graag met elkaar en hun publiek delen. Door het verenigen van al deze verschillende stemmen, creëren ze niet alleen nieuwe harmonieën, maar erkennen ze ook de diverse aard van de menselijke stem. QCA: We zingen niet om mooi te klinken, we zingen om onze stemmen te laten horen! Dat pakt goed uit, want het koor trad al op in veel verschillende zalen en op verschillende festivals, o.a. Holland Festival, Buro Stedelijk, Vrankrijk, W139, Buurtwerkplaats Noorderhof, Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ en het Antwerp Queer Arts Festival.


    Vera Morais is een Portugese zangeres, improvisator en componiste, woonachtig in Amsterdam. Haar werk, dat voornamelijk beïnvloed is door jazz en klassieke muziek, richt zich op de wisselwerking tussen compositie en improvisatie en op het instrumentale karakter van de stem. Ze is geïnteresseerd in het verkennen van nieuwe expressieve dimensies van de stem door de technische mogelijkheden ervan op te rekken en de traditionele rol ervan in de muziek ter discussie te stellen. Vera studeerde klassieke muziek aan het Conservatório de Música do Porto (Portugal), jazz aan ESMAE (Portugal) en aan het Conservatorium van Amsterdam. Naast eigen projecten is ze koordirigent en arrangeur van het Queer Choir Amsterdam, onder leiding van artiesten Shreya de Souza, Mylou Oord en Sarah Naqvi.


    Vier de verschillen en komt allen op deze feestelijke, vrolijke en afwisselende avond voor iedereen!

    Boxing gear available and bring your own if you have.

    Queerboxing offers free boxing classes for anyone who wants to learn or try boxing in a safer, community-focused space. Our class is called Boxing Technique/Bag. It’s about doing something we might not be good at yet, but being brave enough to try anyway.

    We embrace the idea that it’s okay to be a beginner sometimes. You don’t have to know everything or be strong or experienced. Trying, showing up, and showing up for yourself is what counts. No experience is needed, everyone can box. This class is suitable for both beginners and more advanced boxers. If you’ve never boxed before, let us know if you are a beginner. But no worries, there are many cute boxers and experienced trainers who are happy to help you out.

    Everyone deserves to feel safe. We aim to create a space where you can learn to box, build confidence, and hopefully feel a little safer in your body and in the world. It’s also a place to meet community, where friendships can grow

    Sunday classes alternate each week:

    • One week: bag training

From London and New York, Loraine James, Anysia Kim, and 8ULENTINA bring an innovative sound that is both intense and intimate. Nothing Here Now – Transmission Interrupted celebrates trans, non-binary, and women artists who are pushing the boundaries of the sonic spectrum.

    Loraine James
    With a minimalist setup and unbound creativity, Loraine James fuses IDM glitch aesthetics with an improvisational, jazz-rooted spirit. On her latest Hyperdub record, Detached From The Rest Of You (2026) – half-jokingly dubbed her ‘IDM popstar album’ production is pared back to delicate clicks, glitches, and spacious arrangements, bringing her own voice further to the fore.

    Anysia Kym
    Bronx-born producer, drummer and singer Anysia Kym is part of a new generation of New York artists dissolving the boundaries between experimental electronics, R&B and electronic music. Following the breakout success of Truest (2024), she further expanded her sound on her latest alum Purity, her acclaimed collaboration with producer Tony Seltzer. Blending electronic glitch, UK jungle, soul and intimate songwriting, Kym creates music that is as emotionally direct as it is sonically adventurous.

    8ULENTINA
    New York-based electronic composer, interdisciplinary artist, and DJ 8ULENTINA combines expansive sound design with percussive intensity, storytelling, and theatricality. Drawing on his SWANA (Southwest Asia and North Africa) background, he engages with regional folk traditions and techniques such as improvisation and collaboration. This approach also underpins SILLAGE, his event series and record label.

    KROES
    The project of Amsterdam-based artist Lau Breukhoven, KROES explores the intersection of live performance and music technology. Driven by curiosity for nuance, the work unites technical experimentation with poetic sensibility, uncovering hidden histories and the beauty of the seemingly mundane.

    sign.nah
    For sign.nah, music is a vessel for release, channelling holy rage and sweet chaos to move the crowd. At the heart of their DJ sets is a deep love for bass-heavy sounds, sharp percussion, dub, and experimental club from the Global South.

    Val
    Moderator Val is co-founder of Los Angeles Collective, transfemme-run collective that champions and nurtures trans talent.

    We embrace the idea that it’s okay to be a beginner sometimes. You don’t have to know everything or be strong or experienced. Trying, showing up, and showing up for yourself is what counts. No experience is needed, everyone can box. This class is suitable for both beginners and more advanced boxers. If you’ve never boxed before, let us know if you are a beginner. But no worries, there are many cute boxers and experienced trainers who are happy to help you out.

    Everyone deserves to feel safe. We aim to create a space where you can learn to box, build confidence, and hopefully feel a little safer in your body and in the world. It’s also a place to meet community, where friendships can grow

    ​Who are the sexy people on stage?
    ​Well that'll be CJ, Justin, Aisling, and Hud! They are part of STOMP, a queer-founded line dance collective rooted in the legacy of LGBTQ cowboy culture and the Black and BIPOC communities who shaped country and dance culture as we know it.

    Welkom bij Wrijving in Amsterdam! We maken hier ruimte voor echte seksverhalen.

    Hoe fijn is het om een ruimte te hebben waar we openlijk kunnen praten over seks. Over wat fijn was, iets dat toch anders verliep of een nieuwe ontdekking in jezelf. Wrijving is een plek waar we deze ervaringen met elkaar delen. Hoe we seks ervaren en wat we doen verschilt zo erg per persoon. Seks is niet één ding. We kunnen van elkaar leren en elkaars seks vieren.

    Kom nieuwsgierig binnen en ik hoop dat je weggaat met een gevoel van verbinding, wellicht wat opwinding en inspiratie om opener gesprekken te voeren over seks.

    Boogieland, Gedempt Hamerkanaal 38, Amsterdam

    Boxing is from and for everyone!

    That's why we are introducing our specially tailored FREE Queer Classes These classes are specifically for anyone under the queer umbrella. Our queer classes are specifically aimed at rookies but everyone is welcome.

    Boxing gear available and bring your own if you have.

    Queerboxing offers free boxing classes for anyone who wants to learn or try boxing in a safer, community-focused space. Our class is called Boxing Technique/Bag. It’s about doing something we might not be good at yet, but being brave enough to try anyway.

    We embrace the idea that it’s okay to be a beginner sometimes. You don’t have to know everything or be strong or experienced. Trying, showing up, and showing up for yourself is what counts. No experience is needed, everyone can box. This class is suitable for both beginners and more advanced boxers. If you’ve never boxed before, let us know if you are a beginner. But no worries, there are many cute boxers and experienced trainers who are happy to help you out.

    Everyone deserves to feel safe. We aim to create a space where you can learn to box, build confidence, and hopefully feel a little safer in your body and in the world. It’s also a place to meet community, where friendships can grow

    Sunday classes alternate each week:

    • One week: bag training
    • The next week: technique training

    If you have any injuries, limitations, or access needs, please let the trainer know in advance so we can adapt the exercises where possible.

    What can you expect?

    • The trainer is Jay (founder of queerboxing)
    • Classes are free. No sign-up required—just show up.
    • We always begin with a check-in circle (name, pronouns, and how you’re feeling).
    • Then we do a collective breath, warm-up, and start the lesson.
    • We finish with a cool-down, stretching, breathing, and check-out.

    What do you need?

    • We have boxing gear available, but if you have your own, please bring it.
    • We sell hand wraps if you want a pair. Otherwise, we provide hygiene gloves.
    • The Sunday class is done in boxing/sports shoes or barefoot.

    Hello, Hola, Merhaba, Ni Hao and more greetings!

    Are you a Queer KOC ( Kinkster of Colour ) and lately been thinking “Wow, I really wanna meet and connect with more kinksters of colour – wherever do I go?!” Do you yearn for a get together that has more of your flavour?

    19:15 till 21:00 - Free time! Everybody is free to yap and connect with eachother. Either continue the topic, crack some jokes or zone out safely in the corner. It is all good.

    Babs

    Bitterzoet, Spuistraat 2, Amsterdam

    Babs is een veelzijdige, kleurrijke artiest en producer uit Leiden, die maatschappelijk actuele rapteksten combineert met aanstekelijke, zelfgeproduceerde popbeats. Haar muziek zit vol scherpe observaties, persoonlijke verhalen en maatschappelijke thema’s waarover ze rapt met een flinke dosis humor en zelfspot. Haar debuut-EP ‘Ruimtevrees’ verscheen tijdens de pandemie in 2021. Daarna ging het hard: ze stond op festivals als Noorderslag, Paaspop, Dauwpop en Zwarte Cross, en haar nummer ‘Bennie Boos’ werd genomineerd voor Song van het Jaar. Ook deed ze in 2024 mee met het populaire tv-programma Wie is de Mol?

    Met haar energieke liveshow speelde Babs op talloze podia en deed ze twee uitverkochte clubtours door Nederland. Samen met een strakke liveband, die onder meer bestaat uit haar tweelingbroer als toetsenist en MC, krijgt ze moeiteloos een zaal aan het dansen, zonder de diepgang van haar teksten te verliezen. Dit najaar presenteert ze haar tweede album ‘De Club Is Stuk’, wat ze viert met een feestelijke releaseshow in Bitterzoet.

    DNA - Do Nothing Academy

    By Queer unplugged @ Volkshotel, Wibautstraat 150, Amsterdam

    Learn to do nothing - it's harder than you think.

    ​When was the last time you did nothing? No scrolling, no TV while eating, no podcast while walking... You get the point.

    ​And no, nighttime sleeping doesn't count. You're unconscious for that. We mean awake, with nothing to do and nobody needing anything from you.

    ​THIS IS A SPACE TO DO NOTHING.

    ​Two hours horizontal with blankets, music, and your phone locked in a box.

    ​👉 PLEASE be on time (15:00 - 15:15 arrival window) to enjoy the full experience of this event.

    ​🌈DRESS CODE: to get the most of this event bring or come in cozy, soft clothing. Wear good socks ;) because you might want to leave your shoes at the door.

    ​👌 BRING: a cuddle toy, blanket or/an pillow to fully relax and go horizontal if you choose so. We have soft carpets you can lay on.

    ​🌈 October 11th PROGRAM:

    ​Doors open - find your spot, say hi to a stranger, settle in (15min)

    ​Intro to the event + how to actually switch off, because most people can't do it on command. We promise it's not a Ted Talk (10min)

    ​Short guided meditation to drop you in the zone and out of your head (20min)

    ​100 min of DOING NOTHING!
    *If that's too challenging - you can read.
    👉 Curated mid tempo playlists for your ears and soul ;)
    👉 The last stretch supported by 🎹 a live chill piano set by Chris Langedijk, who'll play you back into the room

    ​Coming back slowly. Stay lying down (10min)

    ​Open floor - guided conversation around phone use, rest and whatever came up in the quiet. Then we stop steering and you hang out, make friends, connect with other beautiful queers (35min)

    ​👌 That's two hours horizontal, meditation included.

    ​👉 We finish at 18:00 on the dot, but our space and the cafe stays open till late so stay on if you're not done.

    ​👉 Do I need to be queer to come? No. The host is queer, the events are for everyone, allies are welcome!

    ​💶 Please bring a physical card with you to pay for your drinks/snacks, as you won’t have access to your phone till the end of the event

    ​🎟️ If you can't make it, please forward your ticket to a friend - we have no refund policy.

    Queer crafting circle

    Bar Buka, Albert Cuypstraat 124, Amsterdam

    We (Rose and Anna) started this craft circle in October 2022 because we wanted to create an opportunity for queer people to hang out and meet in a non-party context, while sharing our hobbies with each other. And we're so glad we did! Our little group has meant so much to us during these last few years.

    Bring whatever you are working on or a new project, there’s always people around that are willing to help and share their knowledge if you are starting something new.

    Free entry and you can buy drinks and snacks at the bar, we recommend the fries and their (non-alc) cocktails!

    KWIK welcomes those who identify as womxn: trans women, cis women and also intersex and non binary folks who still feel connected to the womn scene. This does not include crossdressers, sissy men etc.

    We don’t care if you’ve been doing BD$M for 20+ years or if you’ve only recently discovered your k!nky persuasions.

    KWIK munch is an easy-going place to meet other k!nky womxn, get to know each other, exchange experiences and plan for more of the good stuff together.

    We do care that we treat each other with mutual kindness and respect. Everybody is different, so no shaming, racism, sexism, transphobia etc. A no-brainer.

    Every last Friday of the Month, TransAmsterdam organizes Open Mic Trans and Friends Café InClusion at Plein Theater, Sajetplein 39, Amsterdam. An evening where everyone gets the space to share their talents and express themselves. Do you want to tell a short story, perform a poem, sing a song, or share something completely different? It doesn’t have to be perfect — it’s all about TransJoy. Additionally, Sam will be there with free Henna Painting. Let your hands be beautifully decorated by their creative touch.

    *During café InClusion, photos are taken, and films are made regularly. Anyone who does not wish to be filmed or photographed can request a sticker from our team members. This way, our filmmaker and photographer take your wishes into account.

    DNA - Do Nothing Academy

    By Queer unplugged @ Volkshotel, Wibautstraat 150, Amsterdam

    When was the last time you did nothing? No scrolling, no TV while eating, no podcast while walking... You get the point.

    ​And no, nighttime sleeping doesn't count. You're unconscious for that. We mean awake, with nothing to do and nobody needing anything from you.

    ​THIS IS A SPACE TO DO NOTHING.

    ​Two hours horizontal with blankets, music, and your phone locked in a box.

    ​👉 PLEASE be on time (15:00 - 15:15 arrival window) to enjoy the full experience of this event.

    ​🌈DRESS CODE: to get the most of this event bring or come in cozy, soft clothing. Wear good socks ;) because you might want to leave your shoes at the door.

    ​👌 BRING: a cuddle toy, blanket or/an pillow to fully relax and go horizontal if you choose so. We have soft carpets you can lay on.

    ​🌈December 6th PROGRAM:

    ​Doors open - find your spot, say hi to a stranger, settle in (15min)

    ​Intro to the event + how to actually switch off, because most people can't do it on command. We promise it's not a Ted Talk (10min)

    ​Short guided meditation to drop you in the zone and out of your head (20min)

    ​100 min of DOING NOTHING!
    *If that's too challenging - you can read.
    👉 Curated mid tempo playlists for your ears and soul ;)
    👉 The last stretch supported by 🎹 a live chill piano set by TBA

    ​Coming back slowly. Stay lying down (10min)

    ​Open floor - guided conversation around phone use, rest and whatever came up in the quiet. Then we stop steering and you hang out, make friends, connect with other beautiful queers (35min)

    ​👌 That's two hours horizontal, meditation included.

    ​👉 We finish at 18:00 on the dot, but our space and the cafe stays open till late so stay on if you're not done.

    ​👉 Do I need to be queer to come? No. The host is queer, the events are for everyone, allies are welcome!

    ​💶 Please bring a physical card with you to pay for your drinks/snacks, as you won’t have access to your phone till the end of the event

    ​🎟️ If you can't make it, please forward your ticket to a friend - we have no refund policy.

    Hello, Hola, Merhaba, Ni Hao and more greetings!

    Are you a Queer KOC ( Kinkster of Colour ) and lately been thinking “Wow, I really wanna meet and connect with more kinksters of colour – wherever do I go?!” Do you yearn for a get together that has more of your flavour?

    The Munch is from 18:00 till 21:00.
    The Introduction and Topic are not mandatory, if you want to skip that you can arrive at 18:00 and just join the group.

    18:00 till 18:15 - Walk in, get a drink and find the host to join our spot or tables.

    18:15 till 19:00 - 19:15 - Introduction Round and talking about the topic at hand. The topics can go from easy breasy to talking about more systemic issues. Around 18:00 tot 18:10 we’ll slowly round of the topic and make space for the other people who are joining.

    19:15 till 21:00 - Free time! Everybody is free to yap and connect with eachother. Either continue the topic, crack some jokes or zone out safely in the corner. It is all good.

    21:00 Munch Over - The Munch ends but Bar Buka continues! If you don't want to leave you are more then welcome to hang out and vibe out.

    Bar Buka, Albert Cuypstraat 124, Amsterdam

    We (Rose and Anna) started this craft circle in October 2022 because we wanted to create an opportunity for queer people to hang out and meet in a non-party context, while sharing our hobbies with each other. And we're so glad we did! Our little group has meant so much to us during these last few years.

    Bring whatever you are working on or a new project, there’s always people around that are willing to help and share their knowledge if you are starting something new.

    Free entry and you can buy drinks and snacks at the bar, we recommend the fries and their (non-alc) cocktails!

    Queer kinky women munch

    By Kwik @ Bar Buka, Albert Cuypstraat 124, Amsterdam

    KWIK welcomes those who identify as womxn: trans women, cis women and also intersex and non binary folks who still feel connected to the womn scene. This does not include crossdressers, sissy men etc.

    We don’t care if you’ve been doing BD$M for 20+ years or if you’ve only recently discovered your k!nky persuasions.

    KWIK munch is an easy-going place to meet other k!nky womxn, get to know each other, exchange experiences and plan for more of the good stuff together.

    We do care that we treat each other with mutual kindness and respect. Everybody is different, so no shaming, racism, sexism, transphobia etc. A no-brainer.
