Skatepark Westblaak is located in the heart of Rotterdam, surrounded by skyscrapers and apartment blocks.

There are benches along the side where, on sunny days, crowds gather to admire the performers. Every day, the Rotterdam skate park draws dozens of youngsters keen to demonstrate the best tricks on their skates, inline skates, skateboards and BMX bikes.

  • Experience a skating landscape of 1200m2.
  • Several events are organized every year.
  • Take a selfie with the statue: ‘transformer’.
