FILM CLUB NEAR TO THE IJ / by Lisa Dubbeldam

FC Hyena is a colorful boutique cinema with a restaurant in Amsterdam-Noord. At Estadium we believe that creative companies are important in this area. The film club was founded by film enthusiast Lotte Smit, her husband Joris Brieffies and restaurant entrepreneurs Niels Wouters and Marco Birzak from Hotel De Goudfazant.

Estadium is convinced that creative companies are an important addition to the Hamerkop. The film club, climbing center and restaurants bring diversity and attract different people to the site.

FC Hyena rents a space at Aambeeldstraat 24. The film club has a wine bar and a restaurant where visitors can have a snack and a drink before or after the film. There are two halls where old and new films are shown for all ages.

After the purchase in 2015, the Hamerkop is managed by Estadium. On behalf of the owners, the space was rented to FC Hyena.
