Not in Amsterdam, it is in Zaandam, plan the trip out.

Stay in once you're in

Plan to stay until you are done for the night. Leaving ends your ticket and there is no way back in.

Buy tokens with care

Top up a few tokens at a time at the card registers. Leftovers are not refunded and do not carry over to the next event.

Book the shuttle or parking

Check the ticket shop for a shuttle from Zaandam station or a €15 parking ticket and add it to your order, since the venue sits well outside the centre.
