The Tropentheater endeavours to make it as simple as possible for visitors to get their tickets, and to limit waiting times at the box office. Here follows complete information on ways to order and discount prices.

  When ordering online, standard ticket prices always apply. If you use the order form (in Dutch) and wish to pay the reduced price, please enclose a copy of a valid discount card or ID (see above).

  Special reduced ticket prices apply for youth performances. The age limit for entitlement to these reduced prices varies according to the performance.

  When visiting with a group of ten or more, you are eligible for the reduced ticket price (group discount). For further information, please call the box office at +31 20 5688 500.

• CKV

  CKV students pay just half of the regular entrance price on display of a valid CKV card. CKV teachers receive a discount on display of a valid CKV teacher’s card. The cultural credit on the CKV card can also be spent in the Tropentheater.

• Students and young people

  Children aged thirteen and younger pay half the normal entrance fee for regular performances (youth performances not included). Young people aged fourteen to eighteen enjoy the same discount as CJP cardholders.

  From 45 minutes before the performance starts, students can purchase any remaining tickets for € 10.00 on display of a valid student card.

• Extra student discount

  Attention students! From 45 minutes before the performance starts, students can purchase any remaining tickets for € 10.00 on display of a valid student card, irrespective of the original ticket price.

  Queue numbers are issued if a performance is sold out. Students are eligible for this attractive student discount only after all queue-number holders have received their tickets.

• Sold out

  If a performance is sold out, the box office will issue queue numbers from an hour before the performance starts. A queue number may entitle you to take the place of anyone unexpectedly unable to attend the performance.
