MONDAY, NOV. 20 10 AM Cannabis Cup Expo opens at the Wharf. Registration and sale of passes continues through Thursday, 10 AM to 8 PM. This year we've chosen a bigger, better venue for the Expo called the NDSM wharf. A former shipyard on the northern banks of the IJ, the NDSM wharf is now a center for underground culture in Amsterdam. This huge area contains the NDSM hall, the Docklandshal and two historic ship slipways(Hellingen) housing workshops and artists' studios. In order to get to the Expo, you will need to get on a ferry or take a shuttle bus from one of the coffeeshops. Shuttle bus service will be provided free to all Judges. The ferry to NDSM wharf leaves from the new dock behind the Central Station, and ferries run about every half an hour. The ferry, which is accessible for mopeds, bicycle riders and pedestrians, is free. For more info, visit www.ndsm.nl. 12 PM Expo Bus Shuttle starts at Central Station and continues until 6 PM.
