How does a visit to the LAM work?
The LAM is for all curious people, particularly children (aged around seven and above) and their families. The best way to experience the LAM is on a short, sweet visit. We believe that it’s much more fun to take a really good look at a few works of art than to have a quick glance at everything.
Personal
On arrival, we’ll invite you to join our Wi-Fi network. You will go on a personal tour using your mobile phone, taking in five different artworks. That sounds more passive than it is, but the visit will be entirely in your own hands. We shall spark your interest with facts, viewing tips, background information and videos, helping you to discover new things and really enjoy the experience.
Fresh air
Following your visit to the museum, you can look around the beautiful Keukenhof Estate, have a bite to eat at one of the cafes or restaurants and visit the children’s farm. Enjoy!

FAQ's
When is the museum open?
We’re open on Wednesday (10 – 17), Friday (10 – 17), Saturday (10 – 17) and Sunday (10 – 17). See the schedule under Online Tickets for ticket availability.
How can I purchase tickets?
Sponsored visits to the LAM are available. Although sponsored entry is free, you will still need a ticket. Places are limited. You can choose a date and time via our website.
Can I buy tickets in advance?
Of course. In fact, that’s the only way to purchase tickets. Places are limited, so be sure to reserve your date and time in advance. Sponsored visits to the LAM are available.
Can I visit with a group?
The LAM is perfect for experiencing together with family members or friends. However, larger group visits are not possible due to the museum’s limited capacity.
At the LAM, visitors are given the opportunity to look at art differently and in greater detail. For example, we offer an extensive digital tour and proactive staff are always available to help. Our staff can provide viewing tips or tell you more about the artworks, the building and the concept behind the LAM. Being part of an organised tour or a large group would therefore not provide extra depth to your visit or make the experience any more unique.
Are there discounted rates for children and students?
The museum is open to everyone. Sponsored tickets are available. Always be sure to book your ticket online in advance. A standard ticket costs €7.50 and a child’s ticket is €5. Student discounts are unavailable.
