Theatre and music in Amsterdam

The city of Amsterdam has many theatres and cultural events. The IAmsterdam website is a good source for what's happening and where in Amsterdam when you're planning your trip.

The LMTS has only a limited number of tickets available every day, so head to their website beginning at 10:00 AM.

• Every Wednesday at 12:30, there's a half-hour lunch concert at Het Concertgebouw. Fills up quickly, so be there by 11:00 to claim your ticket..
