TivoliVredenburg

TivoliVredenburg is Utrecht's world-renowned contemporary music complex, located at Vredenburgkade next to Utrecht Central Station in the heart of the medieval city. Opening in 2014 as a merger of the former Tivoli Oudegracht and Muziekcentrum Vredenburg, the venue welcomes approximately 1.3 million visitors annually, establishing itself as one of the Netherlands' most important music venues.

The complex features five distinct halls, each designed by different architects with unique acoustics for specific genres. The Grote Zaal, restored from Herman Hertzberger's 1970s design, serves as a world-famous classical music hall. Ronda accommodates 2000 visitors with intimate sightlines perfect for rock and pop concerts. Pandora functions as a versatile crossover hall ideal for dance and electronic music with 700 capacity. Hertz offers 543 fixed seats in a cherry wood semi-oval setting for classical and acoustic performances. Cloud Nine provides a smaller intimate space. The venue also features the Rabo Open Stage for emerging Utrecht talent, plus Kitchen Bar Danel and café Het Gegeven Paard.

Programming spans every conceivable genre including classical orchestras, international pop and rock acts, jazz legends, electronic dance events, world music, hip-hop, metal, and experimental performances. The venue is accessible by public transport with Amsterdam and Schiphol just 30 minutes away. TivoliVredenburg prioritizes sustainability and accessibility, offering hearing assistance, wheelchair access, and free earplugs at all bars to protect hearing.
