what’s on for kids

Dates are checked against the venue's own listing, and anything that has finished drops off this page by itself.

Amsterdam is a small city to be a child in, which is its great advantage: almost nothing is more than twenty minutes away by bike or tram, and the GVB carries under-fours free. The centre is where the big museums and the canal boats are, and it is also where the crowds and the cobbles are, so a buggy does better in the ring of parks around it — the Vondelpark, the Westerpark, the Oosterpark, the Amstelpark. Every neighbourhood has a free kinderboerderij and a playground within walking distance, and most cafés will find you a high chair without being asked.

One of the twenty music & dance events listed here is free, and each one is tagged as such on its card so you can see which before you click. The rest charge, and every listing links through to the venue's own prices rather than repeating a figure here that might be a season out of date.
Across six venues at the moment, including De Kinderboekwinkel, Het Concertgebouw and Plein Theater. Each listing carries the venue, the address and a pin on the map above, and the map is the fastest way to find the one you can actually reach on a Saturday morning.
Amsterdam is the only town nearby with music & dance events listed so far, but it has plenty else: arts & crafts (nine), theatre & shows (47) and sports & active (one). All of them are linked at the foot of this page, and each has the same photos, prices and opening details.
