What we’re about
Based in Amsterdam, we are the largest and coolest international community in the Netherlands. We’re a social club for Amsterdam expats with an international membership that includes both recently relocated expats and long-term residents. Our doors are open to everyone. Whether you are an expat, a Dutch who's internationally oriented, or simply a traveller passing through, you're all welcome to join our growing multicultural family.
On a weekly basis, we host a range of networking and social events at various locations in the city, where expats and locals can gather to meet interesting people, create valuable connections and foster new friendships. Our events are always conducted in a friendly and welcoming environment.
We meet up regularly to: drink & mingle at various Amsterdam hotspots, explore the city's good food with social dining, watch comedy shows and plays, go clubbing and dancing, watch and play games and sports, go on special trips and rides... and other authentic Amsterdam experiences.

See all- The Hater's Ball – Roast Party / Comedy ShowProeflokaal Brouwerij de Prael, Amsterdam
Get your tickets early and show it at the bar for 10% discount off food and drinks. Tickets here
_
The Haters’ Ball comes to Amsterdam for one night only after a triumphant, sell out run at the Edinburgh Fringe. This is not your usual comedy show. The audience decides what gets roasted. You write down the topics you hate, and the city’s sharpest comics tear them apart live on stage. Nothing is scripted, nothing is safe, and nothing is off limits.For more than a decade The Haters’ Ball has been one of the wildest late night comedy events in the UK, with thousands packing out shows at Edinburgh Fringe, Secret Garden Party and London’s Top Secret Comedy Club. Previous performers include Ari Shaffir, Michelle De Swarte, Ahir Shah, Kyle Legacy, Joey Dardano and many more.
The Haters’ Ball is comedy chaos at its finest. Savage, fast, unpredictable and unforgettable.
