History

Originally opened on May 24 1971, the station has been rebuilt twice. In July 2007, a large part of the rebuilding was completed and on November 17 2007 the station was fully opened.

The station arches over the ArenA Boulevard. The complex is almost convert|100|m|ft long, convert|70|m|ft|abbr=on wide, and convert|30|m|ft|abbr=on tall. It is mostly transparent, to blend in with the rest of the Boulevard.

The metro lines that stop at this station are Metroline 54 (Amsterdam Centraal - Gein) and Metroline 50 (Isolatorweg - Gein).

On December 10 2006 the station's name was changed from Amsterdam Bijlmer to Amsterdam Bijlmer ArenA, to match its location (ArenA Boulevard), named after the nearby Amsterdam ArenA stadium, home of AFC Ajax.
