The Uitmarkt attracts around 500,000 visitors annually. Therefore it is one of the largest cultural events in the Netherlands. The festival traditionally opens the new cultural season. It does so with more than 350 performances on around 30 stages. From classical to child-friendly, hip hop to dance and theater to jazz. There is something for everyone.

In addition to the many performances there is also a book market. Next to the book market there is an extensive information market and children can enjoy themselves at Uitmarkt Junior. Traditionally, the Uitmarkt is closed with the dazzling Musical Sing-a-Long!

The Uitmarkt is definitely one of the most fun events in Amsterdam. This is also because it can be visited completely free of charge. More than half a million people visit the event every year.

Hello, I’m Alison and I love my city. I’ve always believed Amsterdam has so much more to offer than what the guidebooks tell you. But as a visitor, it’s all too easy to get caught up in the highlights and miss out on having an authentic Amsterdam experience. That’s why I’m passionate about showing you my city from a truly local perspective.
