Amsterdam Leidseplein Bar Crawl: 5 Venues, Free Drinks

Five venues, one night, no planning required

An Amsterdam bar crawl through Leidseplein and Rembrandtplein where you visit five distinctive venues with entry included, receive one free drink at each stop, and get unlimited shots during the opening 30 minutes. Hosts meet you inside each bar to keep the energy going, while a WhatsApp group provides the route, timings and maps so you navigate the night independently. Minimum age 18. Casual dress required (no backpacks, sweatpants, sandals or shorts).

Nightlife tour in Leidseplein and Rembrandtplein

• Start at Leidseplein nightlife area
• Visit popular bars and clubs
• Enjoy free drinks at each venue
• Continue party at Rembrandtplein
• End night at a big club

The Experience

The crawl starts between 8:30 and 9:00 PM, and the route reaches you via WhatsApp group once you arrive. Bar names, timings and Google Map links included so you can move between stops at your own pace. You'll hit four dance bars and one of Amsterdam's biggest clubs, each with its own music and crowd. Entry to all five is covered by your ticket, which also includes one free beer (sometimes wine) at every venue and unlimited shots during the first 30 minutes. The hosts don't guide you through the streets, local regulations prevent that, but they're waiting inside each bar to party with you and keep the night moving.

What makes this different from wandering into random venues is the structure: you know which five places you're hitting, the order they come in, and what's free when you arrive. The unlimited shots window at the start means the first bar is the heaviest pour. Drinking games and group energy happen inside the venues, not on the pavement. Casual attire is required (no backpacks, sweatpants, gym shorts, sandals or flip-flops), and note that some Amsterdam venues charge €0.50–€1 for toilet use and may add a €1 fee for card payments under €20.

Top questions

What exactly do I get free on this Amsterdam bar crawl?

Your ticket covers entry to all five venues, one free drink (beer, sometimes wine) at each stop, and unlimited shots during the first 30 minutes of the night. Everything else you order you pay for.

How do I know where to go if the hosts don't guide me in the streets?

When you arrive, you scan a QR code to join a WhatsApp group with the night's full route: bar names, exact timings, and Google Map links for each venue. You navigate between stops using the maps and meet the hosts inside each bar.

What's the difference between the two crawl options?

The Leidseplein Pub Crawl covers the five venues in that area. The Night Pub Crawl Pass is a separate option. Check which one fits your schedule at checkout.

What time does the crawl start and how long does it run?

The night kicks off between 8:30 and 9:00 PM and runs for approximately 5.5 hours, moving through the five venues at a pace set by your group.

Are there any dress code rules or things I shouldn't bring?

Casual attire only: no backpacks, sweatpants, gym shorts, sandals or flip-flops. Children under 18 are not permitted, and the crawl is not recommended for pregnant travelers.

What happens if I want to skip a venue or leave early?

The itinerary is set, but once you have the WhatsApp route and maps, you control your own movement between stops. You're not locked into a group, so you can adjust your pace or exit whenever you choose.
