Theatre seats: which hall and where to sit
All three theatre halls are seated; the pop halls are standing rooms with a limited number of seats for visitors who cannot stand.
- Seated halls
- Grote Meer, Kleine Meer and Kleine Pier
- Largest theatre hall
- Grote Meer, 525 seats
- Smallest theatre hall
- Kleine Pier, 160 seats
- Standing halls
- Grote Duyck 750 · Kleine Duyck 250
- Hearing loop
- Grote Meer and Kleine Meer only
Grote Meer is the big-room experience: 525 seats, used for touring productions and well-known names. The further back you sit, the more of the whole stage picture you see; the front rows put you close to the performers.
Kleine Meer (260 seats) is more intimate and works well for theatre concerts and choirs. Kleine Pier (160 seats) is the smallest room, close to the stage and often used for family shows.
Wheelchair places and a limited number of seats in the standing pop halls can be booked through the ticket desk on 023-5563700. Ask for the hearing loop in Grote Meer or Kleine Meer; Kleine Pier has none.
Eating, drinking and paying at Cpunt
Cpunt is cashless. The theatre foyers and pop bars sell drinks and snacks; Café Duyck adds a small menu and live music.
Before a theatre show you can order drinks and bar snacks in the foyer, but food and drink cannot be taken into the theatre halls. In the pop halls there is a bar during the show.
Café Duyck is the pop café: beers, whiskeys, wines, coffee and a small food menu. It usually opens Thursday 17:00–00:00 and Friday and Saturday 18:00–01:00, and is normally closed Sunday to Wednesday. During events, including the last-Wednesday pub quiz, hours can differ. It is closed 24–26 December and 31 December–2 January 2027; check the café page around the holidays.
Payment is cashless: pin or credit card at the bar and box office, and iDEAL/Wero, credit card, VVV or Podium Cadeaukaart, or a Cpunt voucher online. Cash is not accepted anywhere in the building.

Getting to Cpunt Hoofddorp by train, bus or on foot
Cpunt is on Raadhuisplein in Hoofddorp Centrum. A straightforward car-free route is the train to Hoofddorp, then a bus to Hoofddorp Centrum and a seven-minute walk.
NS Station Hoofddorp is 1.4 km from the door, about 19 minutes on foot. Cpunt’s route page lists buses 340, 145, 178, 194 and 196 from the station to Hoofddorp Centrum; OpenStreetMap also shows 160, 161, 162, 169, 341 and 401 serving the stop.
Hoofddorp Centrum is 510 m and seven minutes from Cpunt. Bus 160 also stops at Draverslaan (890 m, 12 min), Kalorama (740 m, 10 min) and Van den Berghlaan (900 m, 12 min); 160 and 401 stop at Marktplein (950 m, 13 min), and 160 at Koning Willem I laan (820 m, 11 min).
Hoofddorp is on the Amsterdam Centraal–Schiphol–Leiden line; Schiphol Airport is one stop away and Amsterdam Centraal is a direct Sprinter ride. Check NS for the current journey time and the last train, because a late show can finish after the last convenient service.
The stop is on Burgemeester van Stamplein. Walk back towards the roundabout and turn left; the route passes the town hall construction site and ends at Raadhuisplein, where Cpunt is.
