Those who love modern art and are plan­ning a trip to Amster­dam can combine their visit with the major Yayoi Kusama exhi­bi­tion at the Stedelijk Museum.

The world-renowned artist is partic­u­larly famous for her color-intensive instal­la­tions and her “Infin­ity Mirror Rooms.” The exhi­bi­tion offers an immer­sive art expe­ri­ence and is espe­cially suit­able for a rainy autumn day. 

The Stedelijk Museum features wide corri­dors, spacious eleva­tors, and acces­si­ble restrooms.

Good to Know: The exhi­bi­tion runs from Septem­ber 11, 2026, to Janu­ary 17, 2027. Due to the expected crowds, advance ticket reser­va­tion is recom­mended. Approx­i­mately two to three hours should be planned for the museum visit.
