Opening Times in Amsterdam

Shops

Opening times in Amsterdam's shops is from Monday to Friday, 8 am to 6 pm. On Saturdays, shops are usually open between 8:30 am and 5 pm. On Sundays, the majority are closed.

Shops located in the more central and touristy areas of the city, such as those near the Red-Light District or the canals, may close a few minutes later due to the heavy tourist influx. Also, many shops are open until 9 or 10 pm on Thursdays as it's the national shopping day.

Museums

The majority of museums in the Dutch capital are open from 9 am, and close at 5 or 6 pm. The largest normally have longer hours one day of the week, so we recommend planning your visit around these longer hours.

You can check the opening times of each museum in the museums section.
