in The Porch
Going to both the Amsterdam shows and my first time there (wee!)

Havent looked up a place to stay yet though, are there any good hostels in Amsterdam (city or close to the arena)?

And getting to the arena, I guess you just take the subway and there aren't any real hassle?

    We´re staying at the Bastion.
    Should be walking distance to the venue and it´s not that expensive.
    On the other hand, I think it´s not quite near the city centre but we have chosen to stay near the arena for both nights. I think the city centre is just a short train ride away

    Stay in the city, train to the show and back. Don't stay near Ziggo. Ziggo is really nice, but it's not worth staying out there. I'll wager 99% of PJ fans are doing the same...

    The train is super convenient from city centre.

    Ziggo Dome is really nice. Great venue. If you want to buy concessions you need to buy food tickets though.

    Those concessions were amazing.

    Food tickets for concessions? What does this mean?

    You have to trade your money with some kind of chips and then with those you can buy drinks,food,etc..not pj merch of course..
