As the days grow shorter and the canals glisten in the soft December light, Amsterdam transforms into a city full of magic.

A Winter Experience in the Heart of the City
From 13 to 26 December 2025, the Museumplein once again transforms into a charming winter village. Right in front of the Rijksmuseum, the enchanting Ice Village comes to life a festive destination where Christmas markets, twinkling lights, and ice skating all come together.
Visitors can browse artisan stalls, enjoy glühwein and festive music, and of course, skate on the famous rink with the Rijksmuseum as a backdrop. Laughter echoes across the square, and the sound of skates on ice fills the air a scene that brings a smile even to long-time locals.
