The Best Sex Shows, Strip Clubs, and Sex Clubs in Amsterdam, Netherlands

Thanks to Matador Network for this:

The Red Light District is Amsterdam’s most notorious neighborhood.

Located in the city center, near Medieval churches and romantic bridges, it is home to an array of red-lit establishments where one can partake in legal prostitution, attend live sex shows, and visit strip clubs and sex clubs. The vibe in Amsterdam is one of openness, with most Dutch people shrugging their shoulders at the idea of money for sex or a live sex show. And it’s this very feeling that will give tourists the freedom to attend such venues without fearing judgment.

Amsterdam does not discriminate, and couples or singles are equally welcome to Amsterdam’s sexy haunts. Here are the best Amsterdam live sex shows, strip clubs, and sex clubs you can visit when in the Dutch capital.

The best Amsterdam sex shows

Casa Rosso

Widely considered one of the oldest and most famous venues for live sex shows in Amsterdam, Casa Rosso is a great place to start as a first-timer to the Red Light District.

The theater has 180 seats with a full bar, as well as a lounge with red velvet chairs where guests, mostly out-of-towners, can sit comfortably and enjoy the show.

A live show at Casa Roso consists of couples having sex, solo acts (i.e. masturbation), striptease acts, soft S&M shows, and the ever-popular “banana show.” There are also acts involving colorful ribbons and cigars — let your imagination run free with that.

Live performances usually last a little over an hour before they repeat themselves. The atmosphere is fun and relaxed, with many bachelor and bachelorette parties in attendance.

Bananenbar

Bananenbar is less of a live theater and more of a bar full of scantily dressed women who will show off all kinds of sexy, and sometimes hilarious, tricks. Of course, true to its name, the main show involves bananas, though other objects are used as well.
