About this venue
Klokgebouw stands out for its strong industrial character and its instantly recognizable scale, giving it a distinctive place among Eindhoven event venues. Set within a former industrial complex, this cultural center now brings together renovated event halls that preserve the building’s authentic look while adapting it to modern productions. Its size is a major advantage for larger events: the halls can accommodate up to 10,000 visitors in total, making it a highly flexible choice for concerts, festivals, trade fairs, and major cultural gatherings.
Inside, the experience is shaped by openness, height, and a raw urban atmosphere that suits music and cultural events especially well. Visitors appreciate the sense of space, the clear hall layout, and the feeling of entering a venue with real identity rather than a standard arena-like setting. This blend of industrial aesthetics and upgraded facilities gives Klokgebouw a memorable edge, whether you are arriving for a large concert, a dance event, or a creative expo.
At Klokgebouw 50, Eindhoven, Netherlands, the entrance is closely tied to the Strijp-S area, and one of its biggest practical advantages is that Eindhoven Strijp-S station sits right by the site, making the final approach simple and direct.

About the city
Eindhoven, a dynamic city in the south of the Netherlands known for design, technology, and a modern urban rhythm, is a natural meeting point for top-tier sports and live music experiences. The city blends a relaxed atmosphere with the energy of major events, making it just as appealing for a quick city break as for a planned weekend around a stadium or arena. Visitors appreciate the compact city center, solid organization, and a wide range of places to unwind before and after an event, from cozy cafés to restaurants in many styles.
A major advantage is practical connectivity: Eindhoven Centraal is the city’s main railway hub, and arrivals and transfers are straightforward thanks to the rail network and direct links to the rest of the country. For getting around town, you can rely on the Bravo bus network (operated by Hermes in the Zuidoost-Brabant region), which connects the center with neighborhoods, business districts, and key locations. If you fly into Eindhoven Airport, bus lines 400 and 401 run directly toward the central station, making it easy to plan your trip to a match or concert without stress.
While you’re here, add a small sightseeing bonus: the creative district Strijp-S offers industrial charm, galleries, design spaces, and hangout spots—ideal for building the mood before the event. In the center, you’ll find squares and promenades around Markt and lively streets, while a pleasant route along the Dommel River provides a calmer contrast to the city buzz. With museums and recognizable city landmarks in the mix, Eindhoven easily becomes a complete experience where the ticket is only the beginning.
