Logistics & Parking

A lot is involved in the logistics surrounding a busy event. On this page you can find everything about the transport of the (stand) goods to RAI Amsterdam.

The traffic regulations can be selected per event in the menu below. When 1 month before the start, your event is not listed, the General Traffic Regulations can be used.

Parking for exhibitors

If you are coming to the RAI with one or more passenger cars, you can buy parking tickets in the Exhibitor Services Webshop.

RAI Logistics Management System (RLMS)

In 2022, RAI Amsterdam will start working with the RAI Logistics Management System. With this new system you can easily reserve a time slot for planning all freight deliveries to and from the RAI. From the end of 2021 we start working with the RAI Logistics Management System at two trade fairs, namely METSTRADE and the Aquatech 2021.

Upon arrival, the truck is scanned and sent directly to its reserved loading and unloading location. With the help of this system we can better coordinate the logistics movements in and around the RAI. By spreading the freight traffic during the day, we ensure a faster flow.

Loading & Unloading

During build-up and breakdown, it can be quite busy with cars, vans and trucks. That is why it is very important to follow the instructions on the signs and from the traffic controllers.

Parking during build-up and breakdown period is free of charge during build-up and breakdown hours. Please scan the barcode on your build-up badge on departure. It is NOT possible to park and stay overnight at RAI loading dock areas.
