Can't see this as being real tbh...
its not on thehip.com
also its billed as 'TRAGICALLY HIP: I REMEMBER HENGELO' and tickets are 6 euro
They are going right from their Buffalo show to this Holland show. Buffalo is like a warmup gig.
I have good inside sources. <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://hipbase.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=18603">viewtopic.php?f=1&t=18603</a><!-- l -->

Sounds like it'll be some kind of video presentation.
Google translation from the venue's ad:
"Tonight a tribute?
You could call it. We are fans of the band and were shocked when the news of Downie's serious illness reached us. The Tragically Hip played as said three sold-out farewell concerts and concerts which we want tonight broadcast images in our Muziekcafé completed on a big screen with clips of The Hip. The applause to hear afterwards will be Canada will not reach but is undoubtedly sincere and genuine. Before and after the footage we run exclusively by The Hip. A kind of Music & Movies but without live music. For all visitors we present a poster set of the show in 2013. Hengelo is just a small foot nut in significant musical oeuvre of The Tragically Hip, but we think we have a large number of people enjoy this evening. Furthermore, it is an opportunity to once in all that fine music to dive which released the band over the years and to talk again about the shows and the memories of Hengelo."

Why was Hengelo a regular tour stop for The Hip over the years? Amsterdam and/or Rotterdam I get, but I may not have ever heard of this city if not for the 100th Meridian lyric and it being on most of their European tours.
