The Art Corso unites all forms of art and grows into a unique spectacle. The Art Corso is a footstep-driven parade with over 16 floats that brings art to the streets. With the Art Corso, we celebrate Amsterdam's vibrant arts and cultural sector and advocate for a livable and affordable city for everyone. Because what kind of city does Amsterdam want to be?
Saturday, May 25, 2024, starting at 1:00 PM. For the third year in a row, the Cultural Stelling van Amsterdam (CSA) presents a festive tribute to its city with the Amsterdam Art Corso, winding its way through Amsterdam. The Corso starts at 1:00 PM in Vondelpark and goes through Museumplein, Leidsestraat to Dam Square, Rozengracht, Haarlemmerplein, and ends with a finale at Stenen Hoofd!

Zwaan-Kleef-Aan.
We also call on all CSA members and other creative Amsterdammers via an OPEN CALL to make a playful, quirky contribution and to join the festive procession on rickshaws, cargo bikes, or on foot! This way, everyone can participate, and the Corso becomes a good reflection of Amsterdam as a Creative City.
