Full detailAbout Ziggo Dome
The Ziggo Dome holds about 17,000 for concerts, with a standing or seated floor wrapped by a first ring (Eerste Ring) and second ring (Tweede Ring) of numbered blocks. Floor blocks are lettered from the front and the ring blocks run in the 100s and 200s, with the best concert views from the lower ring facing an end stage and the front of the floor. The second ring climbs steeply, so the highest and behind-stage blocks feel far from the action. Purpose-built for music, it is Amsterdam's premier arena for major concerts and live shows.
Opened in 2012 next to the Johan Cruijff ArenA in Amsterdam-Zuidoost, the Ziggo Dome is a striking black cube clad in a facade of LED-lit panels that turn the building into a giant screen at night. Purpose-built for music, it has a compact, steep bowl and enclosed acoustics that make it one of Europe's most popular indoor concert venues.
