Full Description

Nxt Museum, Amsterdam's museum of art, technology and sound

Nxt Museum opened in Amsterdam in 2020 and is the only museum in the Netherlands dedicated entirely to the meeting of art, technology and sound. It explores how technology shapes our lives and the world around us. If you are searching for Nxt Museum tickets or immersive art in Amsterdam, this museum is a modern alternative to classical galleries.

The building is designed as a series of large, flexible spaces where installations can fill an entire room. Instead of small framed pieces, you walk into the artworks, and sound and light change as you move.

The Pioneers of Media Art exhibition and its six spaces

The current exhibition, Pioneers of Media Art, is a journey through the past, present and future of media art. It brings together iconic works by visionary artists from different generations and shows how audiovisual storytelling has evolved over time.

Wander through six immersive spaces featuring monumental projections, spectacular light installations, spatial sound, kinetic art, video works and interactive experiences. Plan about 60 to 90 minutes, longer if you like to interact with the works or wait for a turn at the more popular installations. Exhibitions change over time, so check the museum's current programme for your date.

Visiting Nxt Museum: getting there, rules and who it suits

Nxt Museum is in Amsterdam-Noord, across the IJ river from the city centre. Many visitors search for how to get to Nxt Museum, and the free ferry from behind Amsterdam Central Station is part of the usual route, so check the museum's website for the best way from your hotel.

Flash photography and tripods are not allowed, and pets are not permitted, although assistance dogs are welcome. Food and beverages may not be taken into the exhibition spaces, but the museum has a restaurant on site.
