Schematic, not to scale. Amsterdam Zuid is the nearest station, roughly a ten-minute walk from the campus.

Routes

From Schiphol Airport

Direct trains run from Schiphol to Amsterdam Zuid several times an hour; the journey takes around ten minutes. Amsterdam Zuid is the stop you want, not Amsterdam Centraal.

From Amsterdam Centraal

Take metro line 52 (Noord/Zuidlijn) straight to Amsterdam Zuid, about ten minutes. Intercity trains between Centraal and Zuid also run regularly.

From Amsterdam Zuid to the venue

It is roughly a ten-minute walk south from the station onto the VU campus. Follow signs for the Vrije Universiteit and head for De Boelelaan; Grand Café LIVING sits on the campus itself.

By car

We recommend the train. Parking in the Zuidas is limited and paid, and the area around the campus is busy on weekdays.
