From the moment you enter, the transformation begins. Powder and masks at the door, a cloakroom that trades your coat for an identity, and then a journey through salons, prisons, boudoirs, and gaming halls. Everywhere, the building vibrates with live music: harpsichord, viola da gamba, lute, piano, violins, cello, and voices from soprano to countertenor. Handel and Vivaldi blaze, while drag queens, aerial dancers, poets, and Casanova himself weave intrigue through the spaces.
No two paths are alike. You might recline in darkness on cushions while piano sighs above, risk ducats in a Venetian casino for serenades and whispered notes, or be pulled into a convent chamber for Casanova’s forbidden paradox. You could ascend to the Diplomat’s Chamber for cigars, whiskey, and private concerts, or feast in the Salon des Délices, where oysters, figs, and music entwine. In the Grand Ballroom aerialists, singers, and strings turn the masquerade into enchantment, while elsewhere Miss Whisper feeds you Casanova’s secrets… if you are chosen.
And just when you think you’ve slipped fully into the 18th century, the spell fractures: baroque lines bend into electronic beats, a mash-up of double bass, harpsichord samples, and EDM pulses that jolt the myth into the present. This is not a concert, not a party, not a play — it’s all of them at once. A living labyrinth of music, poetry, seduction, and spectacle, where refinement and rebellion collide. One night only, in the heart of Amsterdam, Casanova’s world opens its doors. The rest is up to you.
Dress to play: from 18th-century Venetian elegance to bold modern mash-ups — masks with wigs, lace with leather, tennis shorts with cowboy boots. Step into character and unleash your inner Casanova.
