Blikfabriek

Blikfabriek is a former factory building in Hoboken that now functions as an event venue and cultural space. The site provides flexible areas for concerts, exhibitions, theater productions, and gatherings, combining original industrial architecture with contemporary performance and display facilities.

The building originated as a tin can manufacturing plant and operated as an industrial production site for decades in the local economy. After ceasing manufacturing operations, it underwent transformation in recent years to serve contemporary artists and event organizers.

The space takes its name from its former function as a tin can factory, a label that has stuck despite its transformation into a cultural venue. Walking through today, you can sense how the industrial past shapes the current identity and programming of the place.

The venue is accessible by public transportation and located in a well-connected area of Hoboken. Before visiting, check the event calendar to see what is scheduled, as the programming changes regularly throughout the year.

The site retains numerous original industrial elements that have been integrated into its contemporary use rather than removed. This combination creates an unusual setting that connects visitors to both manufacturing heritage and current artistic activity.
