Order your DDW25 tickets

Your DDW e-ticket can be exchanged once, during the nine days of Dutch Design Week, for a personal wristband. This can be done at the following locations:

• Klokgebouw
• Design Academy Eindhoven Graduation Show
• De Caai
• Sectie-C
• Station Eindhoven Centraal - Stationshal Zuidzijde
• Van Abbemuseum - Bridging Minds

Please note: your wristband becomes valid as soon as it is fastened on your wrist. Once removed, it is no longer valid for Dutch Design Week. It is not possible to collect a wristband on behalf of someone else.

With your DDW wristband, you have access for nine days to all official DDW locations, including:

• Klokgebouw
• Design Academy Graduation Show
• De Caai
• Sectie-C
• Van Abbemuseum – Bridging Minds
• Kazerne

All other DDW locations are free to visit without a ticket.

With your DDW wristband, you can also travel free of charge with the Dutch Design Week taxis: the Design Rides by Xpeng.

Visitors in a wheelchair pay the regular ticket price, as all DDW venues are accessible. However, we provide one free wristband for an accompanying carer, which can be collected at the door at ticketed locations.

Please note: the ticket desk at Eindhoven Central Station is not easily accessible for wheelchair users or those with reduced mobility. Our staff are happy to help and will be available on the ground floor.

DDW collaborates with Cultuur Inclusief towards a society where everyone can participate. Each year we make 500 tickets available for people who cannot afford the regular price.

Would you like to purchase a ticket for just €2.40? From 1 September you can apply via the Cultuur Inclusief website.

Please note: Cultuur Inclusief manages a limited number of discount vouchers. On their website you’ll find full details on eligibility. The Dutch Design Foundation provides the discount but is not involved in the allocation process.

Are you visiting Dutch Design Week on multiple days but, for an important reason (for example due to your work or a hospital stay), unable to keep your wristband on the whole time? In that case, you can exchange your wristband for a personal pass at the service desks in the Klokgebouw or at Eindhoven Station. This pass is non-transferable and replaces the wristband for the remainder of the week.

Please note: You can only request a pass while you are still wearing your wristband. First exchange your e-ticket (or purchase a ticket at the counter), and then request your pass immediately or as soon as possible. Always have your wristband cut off by a service staff member. If you remove it yourself, it becomes invalid and a pass can no longer be issued.

Each request will be assessed individually. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate all cases; the decision of the service staff is final.
