Casablanca is a renowned jazz club located in Amsterdam’s Jordaan district. Established in 1962, it has a long history of hosting both established international artists and emerging Dutch talent within the jazz scene. Originally founded by bassist Henk Baarslag, it quickly became a vital hub for modern jazz in the Netherlands, offering a platform for musicians experimenting with free jazz and other contemporary styles. Throughout its history, Casablanca has maintained a commitment to live music and an intimate atmosphere. The venue's relatively small capacity contributes to its reputation for close-up performances and direct interaction between musicians and audience members. It continues to operate as an independent venue dedicated to showcasing diverse jazz expressions.
