Amsterdam West stands out as a premier destination for corporate events, team-building activities, and group gatherings. With its strategic location, modern infrastructure, and seamless accessibility, this vibrant district is the heartbeat of memorable experiences. At UP Events, we leverage these unique advantages to deliver exceptional, fully customized events for businesses, schools, and organizations of all sizes.

Why Amsterdam West? The Strategic Edge

Amsterdam West is more than just a location — it’s a dynamic hub that combines convenience, creativity, and connectivity. Here’s why companies and organizations consistently choose this area for their most important events:

Proximity to the City Center and Schiphol Airport

One of the most compelling location advantages is Amsterdam West’s immediate access to the city center. Just a short tram, bike ride, or drive away, attendees can enjoy the buzz of Amsterdam’s core without the congestion. For international guests, Schiphol Airport is only 15-20 minutes away by car or public transport, making arrivals and departures effortless.

Exceptional Public Transport and Road Access

Amsterdam West is a model of urban accessibility. The area is served by multiple tram, bus, and metro lines, providing direct connections to Amsterdam Centraal Station and other key districts. For those arriving by car, the A10 ring road offers swift entry and exit, with ample parking options at major venues — including our own 45,000 m² private event location.

Cycling: The Amsterdam Advantage

Amsterdam’s world-renowned cycling infrastructure extends seamlessly into the West. Many of our guests choose to arrive by bike, enjoying safe, scenic routes and secure bike parking. This not only supports sustainability but also adds a uniquely local touch to every event.
