Imagine this: Amsterdam after dark, a wristband as your golden ticket, and over 50 museums transformed into a playground of art, music, and surprises. If Museumnacht were a movie, it’d be a blockbuster, part heist (racing to see it all), part romance (falling in love with the city’s creative soul), and 100% unforgettable.

On Saturday, November 1, 2025 (19:00–02:00), Amsterdam’s cultural heart beats louder than ever. This isn’t just a night at the museum, it’s a backstage pass to the city’s artistic pulse. One ticket unlocks 70 museums, from the collaborative art jam at Treehouse NDSM to the AI Prompt Battle at Nxt Museum, the street art takeover at STRAAT, and even a funeral bus ride between life and death (courtesy of Hortus Botanicus and Tot Zover).

Add live DJs, pop-up performances, and workshops, like yoga-meets-tai-chi at Wereldmuseum, and you’ve got a script even Hollywood couldn’t write.
But here’s the twist: Without a plan, you’ll miss the best scenes. That’s where we come in. We’ve scoured the programme, and mapped out the must-see spots, so your night feels less like a sprint and more like a curated adventure. Think of this as your director’s cut: the exhibitions, workshops, and hidden gems that’ll make your Museumnacht legendary.

Melkweg Expo is a creative space in central Amsterdam showcasing innovative visual culture. Focused on photography and emerging artists, it highlights themes of identity, society, and pop culture through inclusive and engaging exhibitions.

No Limits! Art Castle breaks all boundaries of the traditional art world. Bringing together creators with Down syndrome, sex workers, queer artists, and world-renowned names, they challenge who gets to belong in art. Located in the Red Light District, this collective builds an inclusive space for creativity, community, and experimentation, and for Museum Night, they’re teaming up with Sexyland.

Art takes over the ferry! During Museum Night, the Amsterdam Ferry Festival turns the ride between Central Station and NDSM into a floating art experience.

Amsterdam’s cultural tapestry shines brightest when it’s woven with stories from around the world. At Tropenmuseum, dive into exhibitions that challenge perspectives and celebrate global traditions. The Black Archives offers a powerful journey through history, art, and activism, while FOAM presents photography that transcends borders. These spaces invite you to be part of the conversation.

Museumnacht it’s about experiencing, whether you’re dancing on a ferry, meditating in a museum, or debating the future of AI, this night is yours to discover. So grab your wristband, plot your course, and let Amsterdam surprise you at every turn.
