When you book tickets for students, you will receive one free DDW regular ticket for a chaperone according to the -5 rule:
- 20 pupils - 1 free wristband for a chaperone
- 35 pupils - 2 free wristbands for chaperones
- 55 pupils - 3 free wristbands for chaperones
- 75 pupils - 4 free wristbands for chaperones
- And so on
In the order form, indicate the total number of chaperones you need. The calculation for the number of free and paid wristbands will be done automatically. Extra DDW tickets cost €29,50 per chaperone.
Schools have the option to order tickets in the form of DDW wristbands.
Wristbands can be collected before Dutch Design Week at an agreed time from the Dutch Design Foundation office at Strijp-S, Eindhoven. During DDW, wristbands can be collected from the pick-up point at the Klokgebouw op Strijp-S, Eindhoven. The wristbands must be collected all at once.
Large groups can use the Kiss & Ride. This is located on Achtseweg Zuid, in Eindhoven, on the opposite side of Beukenlaan, clearly marked with DDW Kiss & Ride signs.
At the Kiss & Ride location, the coach can temporarily park near Station Strijp-S so that all students can disembark. However, we strongly urge that the coach does not remain parked there. There is ample free parking for coaches further down Achtseweg Zuid.
