Updated in September 2026, this Euromast guide covers ticket prices, opening hours, parking, accessibility and what to see.
The Euromast is a lookout tower in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, next to the River Maas. It closed completely for renovation from 5 January until the second quarter of 2026, a closure some older guides don’t yet reflect. This guide was updated in September 2026, after the reopening, to cover the renovated restaurant and exterior. You can book in advance through GetYourGuide for your visit.

The viewing platform at 112 metres, the restaurant, restrooms, suites and Coffeecorner are all wheelchair-friendly. Only the Euroscoop ride to 185 metres isn’t accessible. The platform’s railing is quite high, which may affect guests who can’t stand up from a wheelchair. Three disabled parking spots are available at Parkhaven, near the entrance, and wheelchair users are welcome to stay overnight in the suites.

The Euroscoop. A rotating glass lift climbs to 185 metres, with a glass floor, a light and sound show, and music by Dutch DJ Oliver Heldens.
Brasserie Euromast. The restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, dinner, high tea and high wine, all with a view over the city.
