Residents

Actively participating in culture, discovering neighborhoods and getting to know residents connects Amsterdam residents to each other, to the city and the metropolis. It fuels our sense of pride. And that in turn contributes to our identity and our sense of unity.

Visit the city and meet each other

Under the recognizable umbrella of the brand 'Uit in Amsterdam' and the motto 'I amsterdam', we guide Amsterdam residents through the versatile cultural offering in our various neighborhoods: from small and large stages, museums, fashion and festivals, restaurants and cafés, to parks, nature and sports facilities.We zoom in on the lesser-known places in well-known neighborhoods and on the many gems in the lesser-known neighborhoods.

Residents' stories

Het gidsen door de stad doen we vooral door het delen van (bewoners)verhalen via de website en sociale media, via apps van producten als de Amsterdam City Card en via ons netwerk van content creators en influencers. Daarnaast publiceren we magazines als de Uitkrant en de I amsterdam City Guide. Ook zijn we fysiek aanwezig in de stad en omgeving met onze gidsen, de I amsterdam store, en kun je ons regelmatig tegenkomen tijdens (culturele) evenementen.

The true essence of the city

To make an even greater contribution to (cultural) participation, meeting, dialogue and interaction and thus strengthen the connection between residents and the city, amsterdam&partners has launched various campaigns and organized events together with and for residents.Each and every one of them presents the image of Amsterdam as its residents see it – an authentic image that showcases the true essence of the city.It highlights the beauty and conviviality, the rich range of art and culture, the charming shops, exciting events and the numerous wonderful neighborhoods throughout the city.

Non-Dutch speaking residents

Besides the regular Dutch communication channels, we also have special communication channels for the growing group of non-Dutch-speaking residents and students. For residents who already live here, we have the English-language getaway calendar. For future residents, we have a "living" website that guides internationals in finding their way in the broadest sense.
