How to get there

On this website, we provide a map with the highlighted performance route. The starting point of the route is Cullinanplein 1. This location can be easily reached by bicycle and there is plenty of space nearby to park your bike.

When travelling by car, you can park in the parking garage ParkBee Pestana Amsterdam Riverside as parking spaces on the street are limited. A disabled parking space is available in front of Tolstraat 127 (entrance Asscher building).

Cullinanplein is also accessible by public transport but note that this option requires a short walk from the nearest bus, tram, or metro stop. From Amsterdam Centraal station or Amsterdam Rai station, tram 4 can take you to the Lutmastraat stop (remaining walk is ± 4 minutes). From Amsterdam Amstel station, metro 51, 53, or 54 can take you to the Wibautstraat stop (remaining walk is ± 14 minutes), or bus 62 or 65 can take you to the Amsteldijk stop (remaining walk is ± 10 minutes). From Amsterdam Muiderpoort station, tram 3 can take you to the Van Woustraat stop (remaining walk is ± 7 minutes).

Tickets can be purchased online via this website and, provided that there are still tickets available, at the entrance before the start of the preferred time slot. You receive tickets purchased online via e-mail. Upon entry to the performance you can scan the QR code on your mobile device or show a printed-out ticket. It is not possible to reserve tickets. You do not need to create an account to purchase tickets. If a time slot is sold out, we do not place you on a waiting list but encourage you to choose from the (up to) 79 other time slots. You can pay online with iDEAL and you can pay on-site by card. We do not accept cash. Please check the purchased tickets for the date and time slot. The youth rate (applying to everyone aged 12 years and under) is €10,-. The rate for everyone older than 12 years is €14,50. Purchased tickets cannot be returned.

In case of extreme weather circumstances, for example a storm, we reserve the right to move the performance to another time slot. In this case we do not provide a refund for your ticket(s). If we need to cancel a time slot due to force majeure, you can choose whether to donate your purchase or receive a refund.

If you have a special request for a group visit, for example an extra circus workshop for your group, please mail us your question. We will think with you to explore the possibilities.
