P+R RAI (Europaplein, metro 51/52, tram 4; no P+R rate on RAI event days) and P1 Johan Cruijff ArenA (metro 54/train; closed for P+R during events). The P+R rate requires continuing by public transport (max 96 h, RAI 24 h).

About the event

Since 1838 ARTIS has filled a leafy park in the Plantage district, among historic buildings, aviaries and enclosures. The park ticket includes the historic aquarium and the planetarium, both welcome places to warm up. Alongside elephants and giraffes you'll find tropical butterflies in their glasshouse. In winter the park opens 9 am to 5 pm, Christmas included; it closes at 4 pm on 31 December and opens at 10 am on 1 January. Tip: come by train or tram, as parking in central Amsterdam is expensive; on weekdays a cheaper late-afternoon ticket is valid from 3 pm. During the Christmas holidays, 'Donker in ARTIS' evenings run with a separate ticket.
