Get connected through GVB
Amsterdam is a big city, but not with the public transport services of GVB. Public transport is the most convenient way to explore Amsterdam during ADE 2024. As the official Public Transport Partner, GVB is once again in tune with the festival's rhythm, ensuring all visitors can smoothly realise and maximise their ADE schedules. The best part? If you buy the ADE Pro Pass, you can effortlessly glide through the city with free, unlimited public transport for all five days of Amsterdam Dance Event.
Swift travels across the axis
Wherever you hop on a tram, bus, or ferry, GVB makes sure you reach every ADE location around the city effortlessly
Hop on Metro 52 from Central Station to dive into the ADE Pro Conference at Felix Meritis, or explore interactive workshops at ADE Lab hub De Brakke Grond, all within 'tram distance'. A few stops and you're right in the heart of ADE!Heading to Noord for Festival venues like the NDSM warehouse? Grab the metro, (night) bus, or free ferry and you’re sure to arrive in no time. If you're at Leidseplein, take tram line 2, and you are right in front of Radion’s doors.
