PARKING
Are you coming by car? Parking is available at the adjacent parking lot for €19.00 per car per day. Expect crowds as there are multiple events taking place on Saturday, March 2. If you want to be assured of a parking space on the parking lot during your visit, reserve your parking space with parking guarantee in advance for €19.00. After payment, print this parking ticket or show it digitally to the parking attendants. Even if the signs indicate that the lot is FULL, you will still have access at all times.

Is the parking lot FULL? Then use alternative parking locations. For example, you can also park at the Q-Park parking garages. You can also park for free at P+R Slinge if you continue your journey from there with an OV-Chipkaart. Keep in mind that these and other P+R locations may be busy.
