Social Programme

17.00 – 18.00 Opening of Congress

Tuesday October 9

19.00 – 23.30 Congres Dinner in ‘Het Muziektheater’

Het Muziektheater is the theatre of residence for De Nederlandse Opera (The Netherlands Opera)and Het Nationale Ballet (the Dutch National Ballet). This means they do not just present their Amsterdam performances here, but they also produce them at Het Muziektheater. Gastprogrammering (the guest programming organisation of Het Muziektheater) invites companies and productions from around the world. Het Muziektheater is also the home base for the Holland Symfonia.

Het Muziektheater has proven extremely popular. Since our official opening on 23 September 1986 Het Muziektheater has attracted crowds from Amsterdam and beyond in droves. Not surprising, really, considering that our building houses De Nederlandse Opera and Het Nationale Ballet, and that Gastprogrammering brings in guest performers from around the world. But there is so much more to see and do at Het Muziektheater.

In this part of the site you can learn about the history and the architecture of Het Muziektheater.
