information

NDSM is a rough and open outdoor area where bicycles and cars also ride and the surface is not necessarily wheelchair-friendly. But it is certainly not impossible and there is plenty of space on site to get out quietly. Most works of art/buildings/organizations/restaurants are located on the ground floor and are therefore accessible with a wheelchair. If you are still unsure, please contact Stichting NDSM-werf via mail info@ndsm.nl

NDSM is free of charge with a Pay-As-You-Can for the large-scale works of art at the shipyard. It is thanks to the cooperation and support of funds, partners, volunteers and visitors that we can culturally program the NDSM wharf on a non-profit basis.

Do you want to contribute to art and culture in this special place? For more information, visit the Arts & Events page.

NDSM can be visited 24/7 throughout the year. Opening hours of organizations and restaurants can be found on the relevant websites.

Looking for programmes where language is no barrier? At NDSM, all our programmes and channels are fully bilingual. All artworks can be viewed with both Dutch and English texts, so everyone can feel welcome and included.

Stichting NDSM-werf finds it annoying when local residents experience inconvenience from one of the events. Sometimes the inconvenience seems to come from the shipyard, but an event takes place elsewhere. So check the events calendar first to make sure something takes place at NDSM. Do you want to file a complaint for a nuisance at the construction site? Go to the website of the municipality of Amsterdam.

Everyone is welcome at NDSM and we want everyone to feel at home and free to be who they are. That is why we expect an open-minded attitude from all our visitors.
