A matchday at the Johan Cruijff ArenA
Ajax's home in Amsterdam Zuidoost is a modern arena with a retractable roof and a loud, colourful home end. Combined with one of Europe's great weekend cities and a famously easy transport link, it's a brilliant, low-stress football trip.
Getting there and planning your trip
Bijlmer ArenA station is four minutes from the ground — one of the fastest stadium links anywhere. Eredivisie kick-off dates and times can move, so confirm the fixture below before booking non-refundable travel, and stay central by the canals or near a direct metro/train to the arena.
Ticket access
Limited
Ajax sells through its official shop and official Resale; account verification and priority windows can limit access before any remaining seats appear.
