Cheaper alternative - Parking Oosterdok (Oosterdokstraat 150)

The entrance is beneath the Amsterdam Conservatorium. This is at the rear of the Openbare Bibliotheek Amsterdam. On Oosterdokseiland, follow the signs for 'Parking Oosterdok'. From this car park it is about a 10-minute walk to the Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ. From Parking Oosterdok it is a 10-minute walk. Follow the Annie M.G. Schmidtstraat to the end, as far as the Oosterdoksstraat. Here you turn right until you reach the water and then walk to the left, underneath all the rail, road and tram viaducts. There you can take the steel staircase up and you will come out on the Piet Heinkade. From here you will see the Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ on your left.

Please note: parking costs are at your own expense.

What participants thought

  • "Managing stress is a course I was perhaps even embarrassed to sign up for. Now, after the course, I can recommend it to anyone who suffers from stress even a little, and I am very positive about it. It gives you tools for dealing with stress and explains why stress is there and how you sometimes make it worse yourself. It has already brought me a great deal and I am confident that it will help me in the future too."
