Top Netherlands Comedy Shows

Amsterdam’s best stand-up comedy. You can’t beat 5 stars on Trip Advisor and 4.9 stars on Google. We’re that funny - first dinner in the city, then Comedy Embassy at Boom Chicago. Every Friday and Saturday, we welcome hysterical foreign dignitaries from the international stand-up community. They deliver Ambassador-level comedy (or at least Consul General-level comedy) to enthusiastic crowds. For almost ten years, the Comedy Embassy has made the capital city laugh with the best euro-to-laughter exchange rate on the continent. No one has diplomatic immunity from these top comedians. The Comedy Embassy returns to Boom Chicago’s Upstairs Theater, the best room for comedy in Amsterdam. The two-hour show (including an intermission) brings you four top English-speaking comedians and a full bar. Bring your drinks to the show. No passport is required.

Get ready to kick off your week with a night full of laughter at Monday Night Laughs. Every show is a fresh experience, showcasing seasoned international Headlining acts as well as rising talent from the vibrant Dutch comedy scene. The venue is open early for drinks or dinner and show starts at 8:00pm. Show your ticket to get discounts on food and drink all night long. Settle in for a fun night of side-splitting humor with well-known talents like April Macie, Desiree Burch, & Tom Rhodes. Your host for the night, Kendra Borgen, brings her unique perspective and charm to the stage, promising a night you won't forget.

Seeing Amsterdam’s canal-side sights on foot means plenty of walking and crowded bridges. A small electric boat glides quietly through the city’s waterways as a live host shares stories about the Jordaan, the Prinsengracht, and the Rijksmuseum. An onboard bar serves drinks, and an open boat in summer gives way to a warm saloon boat in cooler weather

Grab a seat at the coolest bar in Amsterdam with a ticket to the XtraCold Icebar, where everything—even the glasses—is made completely of ice. Relax first in the hip warm lounge, then slip on a provided thermal jacket for an arctic drinking adventure right in the heart of the Dutch capital. Step into the frozen world inspired by the 1596 expedition to the North Pole, featuring detailed ice sculptures and polar bears as you sip on included drinks in the ‘chilled-out’ atmosphere.

The best way to explore the UNESCO-listed Amsterdam Canal Ring is indisputably by a small electric boat that can access the narrow historic canals that larger tour boats can't reach.

When the weather is good, enjoy an open-air boat ride as well as heated seats during the winter or bad weather.
