Pop culture is celebrated in 013. From death metal to song of life and from hip hop to rock. The news that Poppodium 013 was going to rebuild in 2014 has been received with joy.
In the new 013 there is a hall where 3000 visitors can enjoy their favourite band. During the renovation, the emphasis was placed on the intimate and special musical experience that Poppodium 013 is praised for.
In the new Poppodium 013 there will again be a lot of attention for the famous sightlines. The new 013 has an improved air conditioning system so that even during the climax of the acts, enjoyment is paramount. The big hall will go from 2000 to 3000 visitors and the small hall from 325 to 700 visitors, making 013 again the biggest popmusic venue in the club circuit in the Netherlands.
After your concert visit in 013 you can stay comfortably at Bed and Breakfast Tilburg Gust van Dijk. Here you can easily and quickly arrange an atmospheric overnight stay. This unique and surprising Bed and Breakfast is not even a stone’s throw away from one of Holland’s most famous Pop Temples: 013. If you say Tilburg you say 013. Tilburg as a music city with telephone prefix 013 in the 90’s of the last century made a beautiful discovery by building a concert hall for pop music in the heart of Tilburg. Many visitors come to Tilburg to experience music. As part of the outing, they choose to stay the night. A nice stay in the high-profile B&B: Bed and Breakfast Tilburg Gust van Dijk is the favourite choice. Spending the night at a stone’s throw from Poppodium 013 is really nice!
What do Bed and Breakfast Tilburg Gust van Dijk and Poppodium 013 have to do with each other, except that they share the fantastic location at the Tivolipark? That relationship goes back a long time. In 1997 the city council of Tilburg finally agreed to the proposal to build a music centre for pop music in the centre of Tilburg. At that time Jan-Willem van Rijnberk was one of those who successfully lobbied, as support member of D66, for the realization in the centre of Poppodium 013. Now he is the owner of “Gust van Dijk”.
‘Muziekcentrum 013’ originated from three Tilburg music organizations including Noorderligt where pop music was programmed since 1984. Noorderligt was frequently visited by Van Rijnberk, who was at that time a music and theater festival-organiser.
In 1998, 013 Podium for Popmusic was festively opened on the current unique spot in the centre of Tilburg. The facilities are renowned and the location is beautiful. Poppodium 013 put Tilburg on the map as a music city. More about the special character of the building can be seen in this short video below
