Amsterdam new year fireworks

Amsterdam is a city where there is a party going on most of the year round, so when new years eve arrives they simply step it up a notch with some fabulous parties and celebrations to help visitors and locals alike welcome the arrival of the new year in fine style.

Across the city there will be an almost bewildering range of events and parties to choose from, with live music, concerts, dining options and much more.

NYE Fireworks

 It was announced last year that the organised fireworks on Museumplein would continue to go ahead! It also looks like other firework displays are being officially arranged for each district!

City Centre NYE Party

The streets and the squares of the city will all be packed throughout the evening, and the most popular areas include Leidseplein, Nieuwmarkt and Rembrandtplein, plus of course the eponymous Dam Square, where beer tents are set up and live entertainment continues throughout the evening.

TIKTAK New Years Eve

The nightlcubs of Amsterdam host some fabulous new year parties. One of the most long running and popular is TIKTAK who host their annual and exceptionally popular electronic music dance New Years Eve event at AFAS Live (previously the Heineken Music Hall)

Tickets will be available online here.

SkyLounge New Years Eve

Always a top priority on new years eve is to find somewhere with a great view for the fireworks, and if you can manage to avoid the crowds at the same time then so much the better.

That's why a great option is to head to the spectacular SkyLounge bar, on top of the DoubleTree Hilton hotel. The party here includes music form live DJs, oyster girls serving fresh oysters, cocktails, VIP options and of course those fabulous views of the fireworks when midnight arrives.

Dining with Fireworks Views

Dining out on new years eve is a popular option in Amsterdam, especially as you can reserve a table at one of the restaurants ideally positioned for a front row view of the fireworks

Top recommended eateries to aim for include Bougainville, Mr Porter at the W Hotel, Canvas at the VolksHotel, Madam in the A'dam Tower or of course as we already mentioned the Sky Lounge at the Hilton Doubletree.

New Years Day Dip

Another location that has embraced the tradition of starting the new year by plunging into some inappropriately freezing water, head out to Zandvoort aan Zee just west of the city, where for over 50 years now a crowd of thousands celebrate new years day by  braving the ice cold waters of the North Sea.

NYE Live Stream

The best option for watching the new years eve fireworks in Amsterdam is often to check out some of the live streamnig webcam views in the centre of the city, including live cam streams from the Prinsengrach, Koningsplein and Dam Square:
