Directions
The simplest way of getting to the venue from the centre of Amsterdam is to take a train from Amsterdam Centraal Station to the Amsterdam Science Park Station, then walk the short distance from the station to the venue.
Trains from Amsterdam Centraal Station to Amsterdam Science Park depart 4 times per hour at approximately 10, 22, 40 and 52 minutes past the hour and usually leave from platform 11a/11b (please check timetable at station before boarding). Amsterdam Science Park is the second stop.
Upon exiting the station, turn left and follow the road under the railway bridge. When you come to a crossroads, cross straight over and then right and continue walking towards the building with the two observatory domes on top.
