Amsterdam Bodypaint Art is a colourful event where the human body simply transforms into a blank canvas! Artists of various skill levels will paint on human bodies of all shapes, sizes and ages! 

Freedom of expression

What Amsterdam Bodypaint Art promotes is freedom of expression without limits. This is particularly meaningful for all artists and models collaborating on the creation of bodypaint works of art. The event no longer has full nudity, and bodypaint models are free to participate with whatever degree of near-nudity they are comfortable with.

For the six-hour event, humans come together in Amsterdam and celebrate the fact that we came into the world unclothed and you don't have to be wearing clothes to be adorning a masterpiece. This year's theme is "Amsterdam", to help create artworks for the city's 750th anniversary next year.

There will be competitions for the best amateur bodypaint artists and the best professional bodypaint artist. Whether you are a professional artist or a model, it doesn’t matter. There will be bodies of all shapes and sizes and painting skills will be as varied as the event will be colourful! 

Reserve your place

The organisers welcome artists and models to participate. You can secure your place on the Amsterdam Bodypaint Art website. All artists and models pay 30 euros, which includes snacks, drinks, lunch, professional photographs and a boat tour in the canals of Amsterdam to show off their work.
