Public transport
You can take metro 52 (noord-zuidlijn) from Amsterdam Zuid and get out at stop Noorderpark within fifteen minutes. You can also board at Central Station. The metro line runs 10 times an hour. At Noorderpark station we have special Friends of Search buses running at the times below to drive you to the venue:
– 08.15 – 10.00 h (2 buses)

If you’re planning to arrive or leave outside of the above the announced time slots you can also walk. From Noorderpark station, you leave in eastern direction and follow the Johan van Hasseltweg. At the roundabout, take the second exit to the right to continue straight on to Gedempt Hamerkanaal. De Kromhouthal is located at the end of this road.

Hotel
With dinner and drinks on this year’s program, it’s probably going to be a late night, especially if you don’t live nearby. We’ve got good news, just across the street from the event location, you will find Hotel Holiday Inn Express in Amsterdam.
