A rainy weekend, an indoor plan, and no wish to revisit a museum you already know. Fenix is about the experience of migration, on the quay Dutch emigrants once left from.

What you need to know

A rainy weekend calls for somewhere indoors, without going back to a museum you have already seen three times.

It is about migration, not contemporary art in general
Fenix sits in Katendrecht in Rotterdam, the dock district emigrants once left from and arrivals settled in. The subject is the experience of migration, through photography, contemporary art and immersive installations. For anyone living in the Netherlands as a migrant, that subject is not somebody else's story.

Turning up after work for the final hour does not work
Admission stops well before the museum does. Count back from closing time using the figure in the card below and treat that as the real deadline.

Book now, cancel free up to 24 hours ahead
The ticket can be cancelled for a full refund until 24 hours before the visit, and rescheduling is possible in the same window. Dutch weather changes without warning, which makes booking ahead and deciding on the day a workable approach.
