Win tickets to Yays First Heartbeat, the launch party of Yays Entrepothaven

Yays, the concierged boutique apartments, are opening a new location at Entrepothaven in the east of Amsterdam.

About Yays Entrepothaven

Yays is a Dutch hospitality brand that unlocks the most authentic neighbourhoods of Europe for curious travellers who dare to explore beyond the beaten path. 

At Yays, concierges are real local experts, who can make you feel at home in the neighbourhood from the moment you step into the lobby. At check-in, Yays guests receive the Yays Neighbourhood Guide, an exclusive little book that collects all the neighbourhood treasures that can’t be found in your usual city guide, and even doubles as your personal travel journal.

That’s how Yays celebrates the joy of feeling at home everywhere in the world, the sense of togetherness that comes from sharing authentic travel experiences, and the neighbourhoods that hold the true sense of place of a city.

On November 21, Yays Entrepothaven is officially opening its doors in the Eastern docklands of Amsterdam. Unlike the historical Yays locations in town, Yays Entrepothaven is a brand-new building, ready to become the temporary home of travellers who want to feel like residents in Amsterdam. 

The First Heartbeat party is Yays’ recipe to turn this new building into a home. It will revolve around the place that more than any other embodies the heart and soul of every home, the place where the best stories begin, and the tastiest memories are made and shared. That’s, of course, the kitchen!

The party will bring Yays Entrepothaven to life with five different cooking workshops that will inaugurate its brand-new kitchens.

To celebrate, Yays, together with IamExpat, is giving away four free tickets to First Heartbeat to IamExpat readers. These will grant access to a cooking workshop as well as to the rest of the show.
