How much do tickets typically cost for Warehouse?
Ticket prices vary by event. Smaller local club nights can be as low as €10–€15, while big-name events or multi-room festivals at Warehouse often run €20–€40 on advance sale, with door price a few euros higher. Often there are tiered presale discounts (earlybird, etc.). Always check the specific event announcement for the exact price and availability.
Where can I buy tickets to Warehouse events?
Tickets are sold through official channels only. The best source is the venue’s own website (Elementenstraat.nl) or the event promoter’s pages (trifec.one). Promoters may partner with box-office vendors or online ticket sites (not named here). Do not trust random third-party sellers – use only the approved source listed by the club. Advance online purchase is highly recommended, as popular nights often sell out. Occasionally a small number of tickets may be available at the door if the event isn’t already sold out.
Is there a box office or will tickets be available at the door?
The club itself has only a tiny box office window. For bigger events, almost all tickets are sold in advance. If not sold out, a few tickets may be sold at the door on the night (usually for a higher price). However, this is not guaranteed – door “day-of” tickets are rare on peak nights. In practice, assume you need to buy ahead online to secure entry.
What is the address and how do I reach Warehouse by train or metro?
Warehouse Elementenstraat is located at *Elementenstraat 25, 1014 AR Amsterdam* (trifec.one). From **Amsterdam Centraal**, you can take Bus 22 toward Sloterdijk (get off near Elementenstraat), or the NS Sprinter to *Sloterdijk Station* and then Bus 22/36 to Elementenstraat. The nearest metro stop is *Isolatorweg* (lines 50/51), about a 10-minute walk away (moovitapp.com). (In short: use Sloterdijk or Isolatorweg as your waypoint, then transfer to a short bus/tram or walk.)
What bus or subway lines serve the venue?
Public transit options include GVB **Bus 22, 36, 103** (daytime) and **N81** (night service), all of which have stops near Elementenstraat (moovitapp.com). Metro **50 and 51** (toward Isolatorweg) serve the area – Isolatorweg station is about a 5–10 minute walk from the club (moovitapp.com). These lines make it easy to reach from most parts of Amsterdam, including the Central Station (via Sloterdijk or transfers).
Is there parking available at Warehouse? How much does it cost?
Street parking is very limited. Warehouse is in Amsterdam’s paid-parking Zone 2 (yellow zone) (seety.co), where meters run about €5–€6 per hour (Mon–Sat 09:00–19:00, max 10h). These spaces fill up fast, and after 19:00 parking remains paid (night rates apply). For ease and cost savings, many visitors use a Park-&-Ride. For example, **Parking Centrum Oosterdok** has flat-day rates (from around €10) and a combined ~25-minute tram ride to the club (parkingcentrumoosterdok.nl). Alternatively try Sloterdijk P+R or other hotel garages. In short: either arrive very early for street spots or park at a commerical P+R/garage and transfer by train/bus.
Where are the best places to stand or view the DJs inside?
Since Warehouse is all general admission, “best” is where you enjoy it most. If you want immersed in the crowd and sound, stand near the front center in front of the DJ booth. If you prefer a broader perspective or a bit of space, the mid-back area is good (the music is still loud, but you’re not shoulder-to-shoulder). Side areas or platforms can give a different view. Bars and edges let you catch breath, but sound is weaker there. In short: front-center for energy, anywhere on the main floor for full experience.
Is the club accessible/ADA-friendly?
After its 2012 renovation, Warehouse has ground-level entry and flat floors, so many areas are wheelchair-accessible. However, there may be a few steps to mezzanines or platform areas. Handrails and ramps have been added where possible. It’s best to contact the venue directly before a visit if you have specific mobility needs or require assistance. The staff can advise on accessible toilets or reserved spaces. In general, the main dance halls have open floor plans, but accessibility can vary by room. When in doubt, plan to arrive early and ask staff for help navigating the space.
Is there a dress code or style requirement?
There is no formal dress code. Clubbers wear anything from casual streetwear to club fashion (you’ll see sneakers, jeans, T-shirts, dresses, etc.). It’s wise to dress in layers – it can be cool outside but very warm inside when the dancefloor is packed. Comfortable closed-toe shoes are recommended (the floor can get sticky, and heels or sandals are risky amid a crowd). As a rule: neat casual attire is completely fine; do **not** wear sports team wear with visible team logos, and avoid any weapons or dangerous accessories.
What items are not allowed inside Warehouse?
For safety, the club forbids weapons of any kind. Drugs are of course illegal. Outside alcohol or large containers of liquid are not allowed (only sealed non-alcoholic drinks may be permitted). Expect a bag check: only small bags or clear backpacks are okay; big daypacks might be turned away. No large professional video camera equipment (phone cameras are generally allowed discreetly, but video or DSLR cameras usually require permission). Smoking is absolutely not allowed indoors (it’s illegal). Finally, always follow security instructions – if they ask you to empty pockets or remove caps, it’s part of standard procedure.
What are the venue’s security and entry procedures?
On arrival, there will be a security screening (typically a quick wand or pat-down) and an ID check (so have passport/ID ready – only 18+ admitted). High crowd nights can mean lines at the door. Bags and pockets may be searched. Once inside, you’ll find staff at doors of each hall. Emergency exits are clearly marked. It’s a large open space with plenty of security personnel, but give yourself time (lines of 10–20 minutes are common at peak entry times).
Are cameras or recording devices allowed?
Casual photos and videos with your phone are usually allowed, as long as you’re not inconveniencing others. However, flash photography may be restricted. Professional cameras (with detachable lenses and tripods/stands) typically need prior approval from the promoter. If in doubt, ask the door staff. The club prefers focus on the music/dance experience rather than videography. Remember it’s polite to ask nearby partygoers before filming them.
What time do events usually end? Can I leave and re-enter?
Many events at Warehouse run until very late or early morning – often well past 04:00, with some marathon parties going on all night (thanks to its 24-hour license (www.cntraveler.com)). However, the actual end time varies by show – check the event info (some close doors around 06:00 or noon on special festival events). Re-entry is generally **not** allowed. Once you leave the venue (for any reason), you’ll usually have to buy a new ticket to come back in. Plan bathroom visits or smoke breaks accordingly, as door queues are real and there’s no re-swipe.
Are there food or drink facilities nearby?
Inside Warehouse itself, there is only a bar selling drinks and perhaps a small snack counter (cookies, chips). There are no full restaurants on-site. If you arrive early and want a meal, you must go off-premises first. As noted above, a dinner nearby isn’t an option within a 5-minute walk (it’s an industrial area). For a meal before the show, consider eating in Westerpark or Sloterdijk. After hours, vending machines at Sloterdijk station or a nearby 24h café (if you know one) may offer limited food.
Is Warehouse the same as that Warehouse in Amsterdam’s city centre?
No – this Warehouse (Elementenstraat 25) is a different venue. There used to be an Amsterdam venue called “The Warehouse” on Warmoesstraat in the Red Light District (sometimes called OT301 or The Warehouse), but that is separate. Don’t confuse **Warehouse Elementenstraat** with those. The easiest ID is the address: Elementenstraat 25, in the industrial West. Local flyers will usually clarify “Warehouse (Elementenstraat)” or show the West Amsterdam metro icon to avoid mix-ups.
Does the venue have lockers or coat checks?
Yes – almost every event will have a **coat check** (often just a rack handled by staff) where you can store jackets and small belongings for a fee (usually a few euros). This is important on winter nights since the building gets crowded and warm; you won’t want your coat on the dancefloor. There are no permanent lockers like a gym – it’s an attended coatcheck counter. Keep change ready. Personal risk: the venue isn’t responsible for valuables, so only check what you’re okay with losing. Also note, checked items usually can’t be retrieved until closing time.
