Originating with the city’s counterculture and free spaces, Amsterdam Alternative stands for collective action and radical political debate for the sake of a desirable future for the many, not the few.
After nine great events at: OT301, GROND, Ru Paré, Cinetol, De Appel, Filmhuis Cavia, OCCII, NDSM Treehouse, Plantage Dok, we will close the Vrije Ruimte Festival 2025 off on Saturday 20 September with a massive line up at Het Groene Veld.
Get your tickets here.
The Vrije Ruimte Festival 2025 is organised at 10 different locations (by Amsterdam Alternative) to celebrate the 10th aniversary of Amsterdam Alternative as well as 750 years Amsterdam!
Amsterdam Alternative publishes articles about free spaces, gentrification, politics, climate, music, art, housing and other urgent topics.
The aim of this project is to liberate real estate from the property market through acquisition, in order to create new free spaces in Amsterdam. Vrij Beton = Collective Ownership.
Solidariteit is een van de belangrijkste waarden die aan alle activisme ten grondslag ligt. Doneer aan het AA Solidariteitsfonds zodat wij krakers, vrijplaatsen en activisten financieel kunnen ondersteunen.
