Het Amsterdamse Winterparadijs

From Saturday 13 December 2025 until Saturday 3 January 2026, Het Amsterdamse Winterparadijs will take place at RAI Amsterdam, both indoors and on the forecourt. We would like to inform you about a number of practical matters.

Parking
To prevent visitors from parking in the neighbourhood, we have placed barriers around the area. These will remain in place throughout the event. On Sundays and public holidays, neighbourhood posts will be present. They will monitor traffic entering the districts and ask about the purpose of their visit.

Permit
The permit for this event has been granted by the Zuid District. In addition, the organiser, 4PM Entertainment, has made arrangements with RAI Amsterdam, the Amsterdam-Amstelland Police, the Fire Brigade and the North Sea Canal Area Environmental Service to ensure the event runs smoothly.

Build-up and break down 
The build-up of Het Amsterdamse Winterparadijs will take place from Tuesday 9 December to Friday 12 December 2025. The break down will take place from Saturday 3 January at 22:00 until Monday 5 January 2026. Furthermore, work will be carried out on the outdoor area between 23:00 and 08:00 during the nights from Tuesday 9 December to Saturday 13 December 2025 and from Saturday 3 January to Monday 5 January 2026.

Cleaning
Throughout the entire period, a cleaning company will be present to clean and maintain the event site and its surroundings. After Het Amsterdamse Winterparadijs ends, a thorough final clean-up will be carried out.
