Telstar billetter og hospitality

The BUKO Stadion is the home of Telstar, the club from Velsen formed in 1963 through a merger of VSV and Stormvogels. The club are named after the Telstar satellite from that year and are popularly known as the Witte Leeuwen, the White Lions, after their white kit. The ground opened in 1948 as Sportpark Schoonenberg. In 2025 Telstar returned to the Eredivisie after 47 years; since then the ground has gained a new north stand, an away section and a natural grass pitch.

The atmosphere is that of a proper club ground: small, close to the pitch and a little bit English. The players come out to Telstar by The Tornados. A tradition of its own is the mandjes: with every Telstar goal a fish basket goes up, as it once did in the fishing town of IJmuiden. When the big Eredivisie clubs visit, the ground fills up quickly.

Velsen lies on the North Sea Canal, between Haarlem, Amsterdam and the coast at IJmuiden. Schiphol Airport is some 30 kilometres away; take the train to Amsterdam Sloterdijk or Haarlem and change to the bus there. We can put together a tailor-made football trip with ticket, accommodation and transport. Tickets for ordinary league matches are often available; for the big matches it is different. We arrange official tickets and hospitality with a confirmed seat.

Stadion, og hvordan du kommer dertil

The BUKO Stadion is in Velsen-Zuid, on the south side of the North Sea Canal, on the edge of Zuid-Kennemerland National Park. Haarlem is about 9 kilometres away. There is no railway station near the ground. R-net bus 382 runs from Amsterdam Sloterdijk to Velsen-Zuid and IJmuiden; route 385 runs from Haarlem to IJmuiden. From the bus stop it is about a ten-minute walk to the ground.

Hospitality hos Telstar

At Telstar, hospitality is based in the business seats and corporate areas of the ground. The difference with a regular ticket is the seat and the service: a good seat, food and drink before and after the match and a quiet place to host guests. In a small ground you are always close to the pitch. The number of places is limited, so a package with a confirmed seat gives certainty.

Praktisk på kampdagen

Come well before kick-off, as the roads around Velsen-Zuid and the Velsertunnel can be busy on matchdays. By public transport, the bus from Amsterdam Sloterdijk or Haarlem is the most convenient route; plan your return journey in good time, especially for an evening match. If you are coming from abroad, fly into Schiphol and continue by train and bus. We can arrange ticket, accommodation and transport together as a tailor-made football trip. If you want to make a day of it, Haarlem, Amsterdam and the beach at IJmuiden are close by.
