- And remember, dress to impress. This festival is all about expressing yourself. You can even enter the special voguing catwalk and competition. Alternatively you can just chill at the fairground in just some skimpy shorts. The choices are endless.
The Venue

- The venue is a 4 min taxi drive away from the centre of Amsterdam. Alternatively take the Line 21 Bus (10 mins) or walk (32 mins).
- Stay close to Westergas with 23 nearby hotels. Check out the Conscious Hotel Westerark, housed in a historic building with superb rooms, scrumptious breakfast options and designer rooms. (an Uber costs about 12 EUR from the hotel to the centre).
Hotel rooms in Amsterdam tend to be smaller then you may be used to, because most of the buildings are narrow and tall.
