To create a safe and socially distanced experience, we have limited the capacity of our venues. To ensure you get a seat, we’re going to require you to save a free ticket online before you come to church.

We would ask you only to book tickets that you will use to make sure that someone else doesn’t miss out. If for any reason you have saved a seat, but you cannot make it to the service anymore, it would be great if you could log in to Eventbrite and cancel the ticket, so that it will become available to someone else.

When the service is at capacity it is possible to register for the waiting list. That way if someone cancels their ticket, we can assign you a seat in the room.

At the moment, due to measures, we cannot facilitate our shuttle service from Central Station. We encourage you to use bus 48 from Central Station towards Houthavens.

On arrival we kindly ask you to join the line for check-in. Here you will be reminded of the general health questions. It may take a little while to get everyone in safely, so thank you in advance for your patience and arriving a little early.

Parking is easy. You can park for free on the streets around the theater (be mindful not to park on private property). Another option is to park for 2 euros per hour at the parking garage with 600 parking spaces (5-minute walk): Parkeergarage Houthavens, Danzigerkade 117, Amsterdam.

Our team will be on site to direct you toward the queuing system in place upon arrival; these systems will be an essential part of staying COVID safe, and so please ensure a 1,5-m distance from each other.

Once the doors open, we’ll use the QR code on your booking confirmation email to check in your or your group using our contactless process. Please have this readily available to speed things up.

A one-way system will be in place, and we’ll ask everyone to use the hand sanitisers as they enter the building. Please follow the instructions of the host team as they show you where you should sit.

After every service, we'll have food outside on the terrace of Theater Amsterdam. We encourage you to hang out and enjoy a coffee or lunch together.

We’re looking forward to welcoming you back to in-person gatherings and gradually opening different services. Services might look slightly different and may combine both live elements and content from our online service.

If you have been diagnosed with or are experiencing any symptoms of COVID-19, we must ask that you do not attend any of our Hillsong NL locations or services.

If you have been in close contact with somebody that has been diagnosed or experiencing symptoms of COVID-19, please stay at home and join us for our online service.

If any of this applies to you, please let our team know as we want to support you however we can.

We will seat families and households together, upon entering the room together.

Hard as it will be, social distancing also means that our venues are contact-free zones! We appreciate that you may meet people you haven’t seen in months or are close to, but we respectfully ask that you follow this guidance.

You are not required to wear a face mask (inside or outside), unless it is impossible to keep 1,5 m distance.

Generosity is an integral part of our culture at Hillsong NL, we want to continue to facilitate your ability to financially contribute to church. Giving is mostly done online, or by filling in a giving card and placing it in the containers the hosts hold at the doors. It is also possible to put cash in the offering containers at the door.

We won’t be able to offer our cloakroom facility at this stage. We kindly ask you to bring your coat with you into the auditorium. Please do not bring large bags or luggage with you.

The venue has bathroom facilities. However, these will be open with limited availability. If you are attending a service with children who need to use the facilities, we ask that you go with them.

We are providing our Hillsong Kids program at our Amsterdam location. Kids and their parents have their own special line and entrance on the right side of the foyer. Please also reserve a free ticket for them.

We have a parents room available, where mums and dads can enjoy the service and still attend to the needs of their babies (up to 1yr). The parents room is accessible from the foyer.

We can sing in the services without face masks on as long as we stand at out allocated seats and keep distance from each other.

We have live translations in the venue via headsets during the service. Headsets will not be re-used due to health & safety regulations, therefore we ask you to please re-use the headset you are giving in the following weeks.

10:00 Dutch, Spanish and Portuguese translation via headsets
12:00 Dutch translation via headsets
