About SITP

Since 2015 Space is the Place organizes progressive and adventurous concert series. With De Ruimte as a home base in the first years (until its end in 2024), SITP curated over 1000 concerts with a focus on jazz and improvised music. At the same time SITP forms a creative breeding ground stimulating the scene, also by crossing genres and disciplines.

In 2017 Foundation Space is the Place was born. The official goal according the statutes: organizing improvised music based concerts in which sounds the necessity and pleasure of adventurous music.

In 2020 / 2021 SITP started to spread her wings to other venues, cities and even abroad. The co-operation with BIMHUIS is a solid one with several events a year. Also collaborations started with ao Paradiso, 24Classics, De Brakke Grond, Cinetol, Willem Twee (Den Bosch), Worm (Rotterdam), North Sea Roundtown (Rotterdam), de Helling (Utrecht), KAAP (Belgium).

In 2023 SITProductions was set up, supporting authentic bands and musicians with fresh ideas in the field of jazz and improvised music. Click here for more info about the projects of SITProductions.
