How to get there:
From Amsterdam Central Station you can take trams 4,
9, 16, 24 or 25 to (the) Spui. Cross the street and canal and go into Grimburgwal. At the end of this small street you
will see a gate in the right corner. This is the entrance to the Atrium.
If you want to find out the route from
your hotel to the venue, you can go to http://journeyplanner.9292.nl/
In Amsterdam the public transport system use a ticket called the “OV chipkaart.”
We advise you to buy a chipkaart in advance, because when you buy them with the tram or bus driver, they are much more expensive. You
can buy such tickets at the GVB ticket and information shop opposite Amsterdam Central Station. For information on tickets,
where to buy them and prices, please go to http://www.gvb.nl/english/travellers/Documents/BestDeal/index.html
