About this location

History

Export presents itself as an underground club with a 24-hour licence and as a permanent venue for Rotterdam’s nightlife scene.

Location

The venue is situated in the Keile District / M4H in west Rotterdam, within the Keilepand complex. This is a mixed-use creative and cultural area with several tenants in the building and a distinct programme of evening events.

Accessibility

According to the FAQ, the club is wheelchair accessible via a ramp. The club area, bar, lockers and chill-out area are accessible; the toilets themselves are partly on a raised level, but there is a wheelchair-accessible toilet on a different level, accessible via a service lift. If you’re planning to leave late, it’s a good idea to arrange transport in advance, as the club is open from 23:00 to 06:00 and may stay open later.

Food and drink

The Keilepand also houses catering and food outlets, including Cult=Us and Food Union Rotterdam. Export also mentions a bar and chill-out area within the club itself.

Accommodation

If you’re out for the night, staying in Rotterdam city centre is more practical than relying on hotels right next to the club. The area is primarily a business and cultural district, not a traditional hotel district.
