About Ampere
Doors that stay open until 7am on Saturday and Sunday mornings are the whole proposition here — the room on Simonsstraat picks up around 11pm, runs through the small hours and doesn't really peak until Sunday itself, which tells you what kind of crowd it draws. Music sits mostly in techno, tech house and deep house, with occasional 80s material breaking up the night. The dress code is casual and the pricing sits in the mid band, so nobody is dressing for the door or budgeting for a table; the money goes on the sound and the hours. Expect a mixed Western European and visiting crowd, largely in the 25-45 range, with 18 the drinking minimum. It trades year-round, Friday through Sunday only, and closes Monday to Thursday — worth checking before you walk over from the city centre.
