How to get to Amare & Nieuwe Kerk 

Amare and Nieuwe Kerk are located in the centre of The Hague, at Spuiplein. The parking garage nearest to Amare is Q-Park Spui. It is located beneath Amare and has three parking places for visitors with mobility difficulties. The parking garage nearest to Nieuwe Kerk is Q-Park Centrum. It is located behind Nieuwe Kerk and has four parking places for visitors with mobility difficulties.  

Amare does not operate its own parking garage.

Bear in mind that there is still a lot of construction work going on in the vicinity of Amare.  

Drop off at the door  
On account of the construction work, it is currently not possible for visitors to Amare to be dropped off by car directly at the entrance to Amare. The nearest drop-off spot is roughly 100 metres from the Turfhaven entrance (at the Central Station-side).  
Route: approach via Fluwelen Burgwal, crossing the tram tracks at Muzentoren. This is where the visitor can be dropped off, and the car can then be parked in Q-Park Muzenplein. 

Visitors to Nieuwe Kerk can be dropped off at the door using the driveway to Nieuwe Kerk. The car cannot stay here but can be parked in one of the parking garages listed here.   

Revolving doors 
Amare’s revolving doors have a button to activate the wheelchair setting. By pushing the button, the rotational speed of the doors is reduced. 

Extra service and information

Assistance dogs 
Assistance dogs are welcome. We kindly request that you notify us in advance when bringing an assistance dog. 

Extra assistance 
Would you like some assistance when visiting Amare? Please let us know when making your booking, and we’ll make sure to have someone ready to help you. You can for instance arrange to have refreshments brought to you in the hall during the intermission. We can also help visitors carrying an Autipas (autism assistance card). 

If you would like assistance, then preferably let us know before your visit. You can reach us via kassa@amare.nl or on 070 88 00 333 (Tuesday to Friday, 13:00 - 18:00).  

Rollator 
You can get to the halls using a rollator, which can then be stored at the side of the halls. You cannot enter the halls itself with a rollator. We do recommend that you contact our ticket office about this in advance, so that the Amare staff can advise you on how to best reach your seat.

Rollator users can also borrow a wheelchair. If you would like to, then please notify us in advance via kassa@amare.nl or on 070 88 00 333 (Tuesday to Friday, 13:00 - 18:00).  Read more about the use of a rollator in Amare >

Mobility scooters 
Visitors using mobility scooters are welcome in Amare as well. You can park the scooter next to the escalator on the ground floor, from where you can take the lift or escalator to the halls. You can also borrow a wheelchair if you like. If so, please let us know when ordering your tickets.  

Booster seat 
Would you like to sit a little bit higher on our seats? For all programmes at Amare you can request a booster seat.
