Het Apollohuis

Het Apollohuis was a performance and publishing space housed in a former cigar factory building in Eindhoven. The venue contained concert halls and office areas dedicated to producing and releasing experimental music and supporting related artistic work.

The venue was founded in 1980 and became a centre for experimental and unconventional artistic forms over two decades of activity. It closed in 2001 when funding support ended.

The venue served as a gathering place for experimental musicians and artists working with unconventional sounds and visual creations. It became known for supporting work that challenged traditional notions of what music and art could be.

The location is situated in central Eindhoven and accessible by foot or public transport from the city centre. Visitors could explore both the performance areas and the publication spaces within the same building.

The extensive collection of recordings, scores, and documents created at the venue was later transferred to an archive in Germany and remains accessible for study. This preservation ensures the experimental work produced there continues to influence artists and researchers.
