Local Farmers’ Markets
Every Saturday
Get up on time and head to one of the local farmers’ markets to get yummy, fresh and healthy ingredients for a lush breakfast. With the sunny weather predicted this Saturday, nothing beats a nice leisurely stroll over the Noordermarkt Farmers’ Market or the smaller neighbourhood co-operative zuiderMRKT. Both open air markets offer mainly organic and local produce. The local suppliers/farmers are more than willing to talk about their produce, so don’t be shy when you have a question.

Made in Amsterdam exhibition
11 March to 31 July
Amsterdam flourished and thrived because of it’s trade, but also because of it’s creativity. The latter was a natural selection due to the open mindedness and mix of cultures of the city. In this exhibition, Amsterdam Museum shows a wonderful chronological overview of the various art forms that were made in Amsterdam over the last 100 years.

Pllek is a wonderful bar-restaurant in Amsterdam North, with it’s own beach. In Summer they have open air film screenings on that beach! And although it is not in the weekend, we did want to point it out to those of you that are in Amsterdam during the week. Expect arthouse movies and movies with a message. Now let’s hope for good weather!
