Separate the forest from the city shows
Dekmantel’s FAQ describes Amsterdamse Bos alongside city venues including Oude Kerk, Melkweg and Paradiso. Its night programme also lists RADION, Garage Noord, ISO and RAUM. Plan by the event on your ticket: a daytime forest programme and a city night are different journeys.

Entry is 18+
The official minimum age is 18 and the house rules require valid government-issued ID. Read the re-entry rule for your ticket: the rules distinguish a valid weekend wristband from a new entrance fee. Do not leave the site assuming every ticket lets you back in.

Build a realistic return journey
The organiser recommends train travel where practical. When choosing accommodation, compare the route back from Amsterdamse Bos with the routes from any night venues you book. A hotel convenient for a city show can mean a different journey after the forest programme.
The FAQ and house rules are the source for practical restrictions. Stage counts, shuttle fares and next-edition night venues should be checked again when the edition-specific information is published.
