Welcome to Muziekcafé de Bliksem: home base for lovers of live music, character, and a good drink. Known far beyond Den Helder.
Unique interior with a story
De Bliksem was built using elements from a former church interior. You can see it. And you can feel it. Warm, unique, and with a touch of humor.
Stage for alternative talent
Here you’ll find bands you’ll miss elsewhere. International, local, raw, and pure. The stage is small but powerful, beloved by both musicians and audiences.
A café that continues to surprise
De Bliksem is alive. Always. Expect an open atmosphere, music that resonates, and memorable encounters. Just drop in and experience it for yourself.
