  • Club Chrome

    Club Chrome

    During WorldPride 2026, Melkweg transforms into Club Chrome: a title that captures both who we are and what we strive to celebrate. Just as chrome reflects every colour that touches its surface, this festival mirrors the spectrum of queer identities, stories and expressions. From 25 July to 8 August, Melkweg presents a multidisciplinary programme bringing together music, art and activism.

  • Doc'n Roll Film Festival

    Doc'n Roll Film Festival

    Get ready, music documentary and subculture lovers! Doc’n Roll Film Festival is returning to Amsterdam, running from March 5th to 8th in Melkweg Cinema. This second film festival edition brings an electrifying lineup of Dutch film premieres, celebrating the legendary stories behind the music of the likes of Butthole Surfers, Sun-Ra, Big Mama Thornton and Jeffrey Lewis.
