What you need to know
“Train plus admission” sounds like one purchase covers the whole journey, but the important detail in the Horse Event package is the final connection. NS Spoordeelwinkel includes off-peak return rail to Haarlem or Hoofddorp and entry, from €41 per adult and €37 for children aged four to eleven. Bus 300 from either station to Expo Greater Amsterdam in Vijfhuizen is not included. Horse Event runs on 12 and 13 September; the Youth edition is on 19 and 20 September, and the package is valid only on those four dates. Off-peak rules matter on weekdays, while weekend rail is usable all day. Hokimi recommends calculating normal rail, bus and admission from your own station before assuming the package saves money. For families, the last bus and departure crowd may shape the day more than the programme itself.
