Accessibility

At the Johan Cruijff ArenA, we do everything we can to make your visit as enjoyable as possible, even if you have a disability or special needs. Below you’ll find practical information about tickets, transport, facilities and assistive devices. Can’t find the answer to your question? Please get in touch via the contact form.

Your seat in the stadium

Your seat in the stadium

Are you coming to the Johan Cruijff ArenA and do you have a disability? If so, it’s a good idea to find out in advance where the best seats are. For many visitors, a seat in the first tier is the most comfortable. This tier is less steep, meaning you’ll have fewer steps to climb.

Will you be using a wheelchair during the event? If so, please choose a wheelchair-accessible seat. This always includes one seat for a companion.

You can buy tickets through the event organiser, such as the KNVB, Ajax, MOJO or Rocket.

Assistive devices: what can you bring?

Assistive devices: what can you bring?

Below you can see what you are and aren’t allowed to bring inside. The organiser may refuse entry to items if they are unsafe. Our house rules always take precedence in this regard.

Toilets, flasks and catering

Toilets, flasks and catering

Accessible toilets are located near the wheelchair spaces and platforms. If you don’t have a wheelchair space but do need an accessible toilet, it’s best to choose a seat near Entrance E. You’ll find an accessible toilet on every level here.

Would you like to express milk? Unfortunately, there are no dedicated breastfeeding rooms yet. In consultation with the first-aid team, you may be able to use their space (medical needs always take priority). Please let us know in advance via the contact form. You can also speak to a (medical) steward to find a suitable spot together.

Catering is available at the MIVA platform and all wheelchair spaces. Some bars are not yet at the ideal height. We’re working on that.

Sensitivity to stimuli & support

Sensitivity to stimuli & support

Are you sensitive to stimuli, do you have an Autipas, or do you wear a Sunflower Lanyard? We’d be happy to discuss with you what works best for you.

During concerts, if you have a general admission ticket, you can retreat to our sensory-friendly unit on the ArenAdek. It’s quieter there and there’s a peaceful place to sit. If it’s busy, you can use the unit for up to 15 minutes at a time. You can use the space several times during the evening.

Would you like to make use of this facility? Please let us know in advance via the contact form. We also recommend entering the stadium at a quiet time.
