The Affordable Art Fair Amsterdam (often abbreviated as AAF Amsterdam) is a renowned art fair showcasing contemporary art. It takes place annually, typically in either October or November. First inaugurated in London in 1999 by Ramsay Fairs Ltd., the event has since garnered international acclaim within the art community. While the Affordable Art Fair originated in London, its success has led to similar fairs in key cities including Amsterdam, Melbourne, New York, Stockholm, and others. As such, it has become a pivotal event for art lovers around the world. A defining feature of the fair is its commitment to making art accessible, evident from its price cap of 5,000 euros on artworks. This ensures that both seasoned connoisseurs and budding art enthusiasts can afford the pieces on display. Set against the culturally-rich backdrop of Amsterdam, the fair is hosted in the remarkable De Kromhouthal venue. Visitors can expect to see an eclectic mix of paintings, graphics, sculptures, and photographs. The event serves as a platform for both emerging talents and esteemed artists. A highlight is the "Emerging Artist" exhibition, offering a glimpse into the works of tomorrow's leading artists, which visitors can view and even purchase. Most exhibitors hail from the realms of visual art and photography. The AAF Amsterdam draws a varied crowd, from gallery proprietors and art investors to collectors and casual art aficionados. This fair is a testament to the global efforts aimed at democratizing art appreciation and bolstering artist support. Conveniently situated in central Amsterdam, De Kromhouthal is accessible via public transit and car.
The first day of the trade fair is usually reserved for trade visitors and journalists.The Affordable Art Fair will take place on 5 days from Wednesday, 08. October to Sunday, 12. October 2025 in Amsterdam.
