De Gashouder
Concert Series

About the event:

Westergas is a culture village in Amsterdam’s Westerpark and home to a variety of bars, restaurants and cultural entertainment venues. For the first time ever, they organized a series of concerts in the iconic De Gashouder venue – known as the host for among others Awakenings, Unseen and The Next Web. From Saturday 30 April till Sunday 15 May 2022, Bilal Wahib, The Opposites, Above & Beyond, Balthazar and De Staat turned the Gashouder upside down with 3.500 fans per night!

Role of Backbone:

As Westergas’ partner, Backbone was responsible for the total technical production and overlay management of these concerts. This included, among other things, the creation of the stage, all temporary infrastructure and the lighting and audio rig. The team made sure the events were held in a safe and professional way, from drawing board to the round of applause!
