SONA is shaped by its community, and together we’re creating its future in Amsterdam with care for the neighborhood and its surroundings. That’s why this is an event with very limited car access. By deciding to visit the festival by car you accept the possibility of traffic jams and longer exit times. To ensure a smooth entrance and exit of the festival, the bike or shuttle bus are the best modes of transport.

By asking you to come by shuttle bus or bike, we want to give you something in return: exclusive access to a fast-lane festival entrance. To make sure you have access to the fast-lane entrance you’ll have to pick-up your exclusive fast-lane wristband at the shuttle bus stop (Sloterdijk or Amsterdam Central Station) by showing your shuttle bus ticket when you enter the bus or with your bike at the bicycle parking.
