For travellers who love sports, cheap holidays to Amsterdam are the ideal way to spend a few days away on a citybreak and indulging in all things sporting. The best time to go will be when the Amsterdam arena is hosting the Dutch national team for an international match. Cheap flights here are in plentiful supply, so why not have a look online today?
The area around the arena is turned into a fun sports park with a live stage and football arena, while the city centre comes to life in the most flamboyant of ways, even on a weekday outside of the peak tourist season. Revellers are dressed head to toe in Orange, the home colours of the national team and may have other garments made in the colours of the national flag.
Tickets to a national game are relatively cheap and easy to come by with some local shops and tourist centres selling them. For the greatest ease in obtaining a ticket guests should contact the helpful concierge desks at their hotels, though they may charge a fee on top of the ticket price which is upwards of 30 Euros for adults. For travellers who don’t manage to get tickets it is still possible to take a tour of the Amsterdam arena, home to Ajax Amsterdam, the country’s most successful football team. The tours cost 12 Euros for an adult ticket and include pitch side visits.
