¿Qué es el Moulin Rouge Amsterdam?

RESERVAR AHORA

El Moulin Rouge de Ámsterdam es un famoso local en pleno Barrio Rojo que ofrece espectáculos para adultos en vivo. Los visitantes pueden disfrutar de cuatro actuaciones únicas con artistas masculinos y femeninos, incluyendo actos sexuales en vivo y striptease.

Conocido por su atmósfera atrevida y teatral, el Moulin Rouge es una de las principales atracciones para los turistas que buscan una experiencia nocturna inolvidable en Ámsterdam.

According to Wikipedia, Moulin Rouge means Red Windmill in French and it’s a symbol of the bohemian life. The early years of the Moulin Rouge were characterized by extravagant shows, inspired by the circus. The first real Moulin Rouge stands in Paris and is a bit different than this one. The acts in Moulin Rouge Amsterdam aren’t really inspired by the circus but more on erotic entertainment.

Moulin Rouge Amsterdam Live Shows

Uno de nuestros guías, Jasper, decidió ir al Moulin Rouge y repasó los espectáculos de sexo durante su visita.

De hecho, dos clientas (que se unieron a nuestro tour por el Barrio Rojo) le preguntaron a nuestro guía si quería acompañarlas al Moulin Rouge después del tour. Sin dudarlo, dijo que sí, porque nunca lo había visto. Así que allá fueron, curiosas y emocionadas…

El espectáculo arrancó con un electrizante striptease femenino que marcó el ritmo de la noche. Cada acto fue único, desde los espectáculos de escritura creativa hasta las actuaciones sorpresa que mantuvieron al público en vilo.

Las presentaciones en vivo de la pareja fueron particularmente cautivadoras, combinando pasión y arte de una manera que no habíamos experimentado antes. El ambiente íntimo me hizo sentir parte del espectáculo, lo que aumentó la emoción.

Moulin Rouge Amsterdam Atmosphere

De sfeer in het theater was zowel stijlvol als uitdagend. De rode fluwelen stoelen en de gedempt licht vormden een perfecte achtergrond voor de erotische voorstellingen. Het personeel was vriendelijk en zorgde ervoor dat iedereen zich op zijn gemak voelde en zich betrokken voelde.

They bought entradas para el Moulin Rouge, went inside and got a drink. Our table was just meters from the stage, allowing us to feel every spotlight flicker, hear the faint hum of the music, and see performers’ expressions up close. The proximity made the crowd—and us—part of the action.

También hay zonas para estar de pie y sentado alrededor del bar. Durante nuestra visita, descubrimos que desde estos asientos también se puede disfrutar de los espectáculos eróticos del Moulin Rouge.

Esto también se hizo evidente en la reacción de un visitante que estaba de pie al fondo de la sala. Cuando probamos el Moulin Rouge, este tipo del fondo gritaba con entusiasmo "¡Guau!" cuando la stripper le quitó la lencería.

Moulin Rouge Amsterdam Review

No queremos contar demasiado sobre los espectáculos eróticos del Moulin Rouge de Ámsterdam porque arruinaría la sorpresa. Sin embargo, sí queremos explicar en qué consiste un supuesto espectáculo de escritura. Aquí está nuestra reseña:

During our visit, a volunteer was needed during the show. So the female sex worker – or stripper if you will – on stage picked our tour guide who was sitting front row.

Durante el espectáculo de escritura, nuestro guía Jasper (ver foto abajo) fue invitado juguetonamente al escenario. Tras un breve striptease, el artista, sorprendentemente, usó un rotulador para escribirse "BadBoy" en el pecho, un momento audaz que hizo estallar de risa a todo el público.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
On June 21, 2025, I arrived at Moulin Rouge Amsterdam and was immediately struck by the warm greeting at the door and the attentive bar staff. Their welcoming attitude helped set the mood for a memorable evening. Nice place to have fun. Friendly welcome and bar staff. 5 different shows, including beautiful pole dance acts. When you sit at the stage you get to see all the details. I’ve seen them all twice 😉 and also went on stage twice. Also left with “Moulin Rouge” on my stomach and the lady who wrote this didn’t have the marker in her hand ;-). Really worth going again. Recommended! Google review

Moulin Rouge La Goulue History

The Moulin Rouge in France; probable the most famous dancing cabaret hall of all time. First opened its doors on 6 October 1889 and many legends have trod those boards. We’re going to tell you about one of the most famous or infamous. This legend also known as La Goulue which means ‘the glutton’. La Goulue was born around 1866 to an impoverished Jewish family. Not much had known at all about her early childhood but by the time she was a teenager she was earning money dancing in clubs around Paris. And she got the name of the glutton by stealing drinks from the patrons in the clubs. She was loud, she was brash, she was cheeky and she really didn’t give a stuff what anyone else thought. The can can as a dance haven’t been around very long at all. Before La Goulue got hold of it and make it her own. She could kick her legs higher than anyone else. She often didn’t wear underwear. She would kick off the hats of patrons and then twirl them around on her foot. And it wasn’t long before the Moulin Rouge came knocking. La Goulue was an overnight sensation at the Moulin Rouge. She even attracted the attention of very famous artist who immortalised her. Toulouse-Lautrec painted her in an advertisement for the Moulin Rouge here and she had a string of very, very wealthy lovers. The wealthiest of whom was none other than The Prince of Wales and future King Edward the 7th of Britain. Otherwise known as Dirty Bertie. The story goes that the first time Dirty Bertie ever saw La Goulue he was being walked through Moulin Rouge and she saw him and yelled out across the club: “Hey Wales! Are you buying the champagne?” Everyone was stunned that the future king would be spoken to like this by a can can girl. But Dirty Bertie couldn’t get enough of her. At the height of her career La Goulue decided that she could make more money if she branched out on her own. And she left Moulin Rouge. She invested all her money that she’d made in her own act. But it wasn’t a success. People just didn’t like her outside the Moulin Rouge. She’d also developed a pretty severe alcohol problem by this time. And any money that she had left over was pretty soon spent. Destitute and sick with alcoholism La Goulue spent her final few years scraping together a living selling cigarets and matches on the pavements outside the Moulin Rouge, were she once danced. She pretty much disappears more public life apart from a few photographs of her here and there. She was only 62 and living in poverty when she died. She was originally buried in a very poor district of Paris but a few years after that funds were raised to finally move her to a more fitting location. And this is her final resting place in a cemetery of Montmartre. You can still go on and see her grave today and leave flowers.
