1. Use public transport

Jaarbeurs is located next to Utrecht Central and is easily accessible by train, tram and bus. If you are traveling by car, try to carpool as much as possible. The event app provides information about available parking spaces at Jaarbeurs. If the parking lot is full, choose one of the nearby Park and Ride (P+R) locations.

2. Download the event app

You can find your ticket in the event app. Download the app and show the QR code on your ticket at the entrance. Use the app to navigate the event and find exhibitors, speakers, and activities. This eliminates the need for a program booklet, saving thousands of tons of paper annually.

3. Separate your waste

Inside all buildings of Jaarbeurs, you’ll find separate waste bins. Materials like paper and plastic are largely recycled. This saves raw materials, energy, and money.

4. Enjoy a sustainable bite

Discover vegetarian, local, and seasonal dishes at the Moments locations and restaurants.

Thirsty? Use your own water bottle. This way, we use tons less plastic together, and you’ll always have something to drink on hand.

5. Donate your deposit

Leftover plastic bottle or can? Recycle it in the designated bin and donate the deposit on the Princess Máxima Center for pediatric oncology. This way, you contribute to the environment and a good cause.

Jaarbeurs is a partner of the Princess Máxima Center.
