The train is a popular way for visitors to travel, so even with extra services and adjusted schedules, stations can get extremely crowded before and after the event. Waiting times can reach two hours. Consider an alternative mode of transport, such as the official Dutch Grand Prix Shuttle or Park + Bike. With the Dutch Grand Prix Shuttle, you get a guaranteed seat and fixed arrival and departure times, or you can use Park + Bike to cycle past the queues.
Consider alternative transport options
• Park + Bike: Park your car and cycle the last few kilometers to the circuit.
• Dutch Grand Prix Shuttle: Get picked up at a stop near you and travel to Zandvoort comfortably, sustainably, and with others.
If you do travel by train
• Buy your ticket in advance or check in with your OV-chipcard, debit card, or credit card (except AMEX).
• Leave early so you don’t miss any of the race program.
• Expect long waiting times at departure and consider staying a bit longer after the event to enjoy the Fanzone or visit activities in the center of Zandvoort.
• Check the NS app for the latest travel information.

ALL FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONSNo worries! The first trains arrive before the gates open, and the final trains leave Zandvoort late in the evening. Check NS.nl before travelling for the latest schedule.
During the race weekend, 12 trains per hour run between Amsterdam Central and Zandvoort aan Zee, so you won’t have to wait long for the next train. However, due to the high number of visitors before and after the event, waiting times at Zandvoort Station may still reach up to 60 minutes.
To avoid the wait, consider spending more time at the event area, exploring the Fanzone, or enjoying Zandvoort itself. Waiting times generally decrease later in the evening.
