Membership of ARTIS allows you to enjoy the ARTIS-Park throughout the year. You can combine membership of ARTIS with membership of ARTIS-Micropia so that you can also visit ARTIS-Micropia unlimitedly. 

These terms and conditions apply to the ARTIS membership. Up to eight people at one address can be on one membership. The membership is valid for one year. At the end of the current membership year ARTIS gives you the option to renew your membership by one year by paying the annual rate. 

If you do not wish to renew, you can cancel the membership up to four weeks before the end of the current membership year. If ARTIS does not receive a cancellation, the membership is converted to an indefinite-term membership with a four-week cancellation period. In the event of early termination, the annual rate paid will not be refunded.

The annual rates for membership can be found on www.artis.nl. Payment of the membership is due as of the date of effect of the membership year and takes place by advance payment. ARTIS reserves the right to make price changes.
