Amsterdam is a real city, not a theme park

While Amsterdam welcomes visitors, it is home to thousands of residents who live, work, and go to school here. The city has established rules and limits to ensure that everyone can enjoy the streets calmly.

  • 18+ reminder: Adult venues are strictly for individuals 18 years and older.
  • Bring valid ID: Always carry official identification. Venues are required to check.
  • Follow venue rules: Each place has its own rules. Listen to staff and adhere to their guidelines.
  • Respect residents: Keep noise levels down, especially in residential areas and at night.
  • Avoid nuisance behaviour: Do not block sidewalks, litter, or cause disturbances.
  • Follow public space restrictions: Be aware of and obey local laws regarding where certain behaviours are permitted.
