Club Church

About

Welcome to Club Church, an essential destination on any 'gay map' of Amsterdam and one of the most iconic queer venues in Europe. Located on the historic Kerkstraat, this former house of worship has been transformed into a legendary playground for gay men and the wider LGBTQ+ community. Known for its 'preach liberation' ethos, Club Church is much more than just a sex club; it is a safe, inclusive sanctuary where self-expression and fetish subcultures thrive. The venue’s multi-level layout offers something for every desire. The ground floor features a high-energy dance floor and a main bar where world-class DJs and hilarious drag performers take center stage. For those looking to explore their wilder side, the upstairs balcony serves as a cruising maze, while the extensive basement houses a sprawling darkroom, private cabins, and full facilities, including showers and slings. Club Church is famous for its diverse themed nights, ranging from the steamy (z)onderbroek (underwear) and Naked parties to specialized fetish events and queer-friendly dance marathons. Whether you are a local regular or a traveler seeking the authentic pulse of Amsterdam’s nightlife, this venue offers a non-judgmental space to connect, dance, and play. With its friendly staff and sex-positive atmosphere, Club Church remains a premier highlight for every queer traveler’s itinerary.
