The 8 Best Bars & Clubs in Cool, South Holland Province

December 13, 2021 Veronika Gaddis

Holland's most modern city began as a fishing village in the 13th century. It was developing into an industrial and trading power when German bombers destroyed the city center and harbor in 1940. However, Rotterdam's unique architecture now brings many visitors to bike around this urbane, cosmopolitan city. Old Dutch-style houses can still be found in historic Delfshaven, from where the pilgrims set sail in 1620. Cultural offerings from summer's carnival to classical music give Amsterdam competition.

The Performance Bar

This transformable bar blurs the boundaries between cafe, theatre, bar and stage, artist and audience. It presents all kinds of acts that span across the categories of art and entertainment. A seemingly normal evening out suddenly becomes an adventure when performers jump on the bar and present everything from the low-brow to the profound.

Toffler

Club grows organically with the crowd Since the opening in November 2011 TOFFLER has been known for its unique moveable DJ booth with fully integrated high-quality sound and lighting system. It is able to move back and forth during the night thanks to its hydraulic system which was especially designed for the venue. This ultimate results in a space that’s able to adapt to the crowd in any circumstance. The transformation takes place with a slow speeds that’s hardly even noticeable. In addition to that, the very first thing you notice when you enter this former underground pedestrian tunnel based in the centre of Rotterdam, is the characteristic LED-strip lighting on the ceiling. The LED-strips become more intense the more further you walk in the tunnel where the DJ booth is situated at the end. Toffler opened in November 2011 and since then some of the biggest artist in the music industry have taken place behind the decks which is directly situated at height and in front of the audience. This is also the reason why some of the artists love to perform longer sets and get sucked into the intimate vibe. Names such as Richie Hawtin, Loco Dice, Marco Carola, Adam Beyer, Seth Troxler, Chris Liebing are simply a few that visited the club. Nevertheless, TOFFLER also is a venue that values established underground artists and forms a brew nest for upcoming local artists.
