Introduction
Since the first museumnight in November 2000, Amsterdam museums stay open until 2AM for one night a year and welcome thousands of new visitors. For a relatively small city, Amsterdam has a great amount of museums: 42 museums collaborate during museumnight and are easy to reach by bicycle or public transport.
Apart from seeing the collections and temporary exhibitions there’s plenty to see and do, also for non-Dutch visitors. On this 10th edition the programme includes DJ’s, bands, dance, performances, film, food & drinks.
The museumnight is an event where especially locals explore the museums in their city, therefore most information is in Dutch. But for this year we've made an overview that's published in Time Out Amsterdam (October issue), with recommendations in English. You can also download this overview above.
Enjoy your museumnight!
