Temporary combi offer: Basic Pass + unique hosting + sailing trip

Even though we have some of the most affordable ticket prices among international European blues festivals, finding a budget-friendly place to sleep in Amsterdam can still be challenging.

And then there’s the question: what do you buy first? A festival ticket, hoping you’ll find the right host later? Or a hotel room, hoping the ticket you want is still available by then?

We got a special offer for you!

We’re trying to help you find the kind of hosting that fits you in different ways. Maybe this is the right offer for you!

We have rented De Avontuur (The Adventure), a classic sailing ship with several cabins where you can sleep, plus space to cook and relax. Check out this beauty here:  https://www.avontuur.nl/het-schip/

Sailing trip (included)

And last but not least, on Saturday or Sunday, depending on the weather, the ship will take a sailing tour for a few hours on the IJ.

Keep in mind:

  • You can add additional workshops and activities during sign-up at an extra cost.
  • The sailing tour will overlap with the early workshops. So if you take the beginners, advanced or cabaret track, you’ll miss either the sailing trip or half of your classes.
  • This is not the Friday canal boat tour with live music, part of the exchange day; that is a separate activity you can sign up for. So you can do 2 boat tours!
