What Sun-Mi Hong says: this Saturday, a very special duo in an intimate setting on Amsterdam's most beautiful rooftop. Join us! on-the-roof.com
On the Roof is a music festival on the beautiful, spacious roof in a forgotten corner of Amsterdam-Noord. On ten summer eves between June and September, you are welcome to experience live music in various constellations and sounds, moving between jazz, world, impro, classical and back. On the Roof is the brainchild of musician Felix Hildenbrand, who invites artists to the roof that move and fascinate him. At the same time the festival demonstrates the width and depth of the Amsterdam music scene.
On the Roof is a music series for connaisseurs, discoverers and lucky devils – in other words: the capacity is limited with only 100 seats per show, so make sure to book your tickets in time. The festival is well-loved for its intimate atmosphere and living room music setting. The sixth edition is coming up and once again showcases a selection of extraordinary artists. Come join us under the stars!
