Former United States President Barack Obama is coming to the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam to speak about his life, work, and thoughts about the future of leadership. An Evening with President Barack Obama will happen on May 1. Tickets went on sale on Monday after more specific details about the event were made public.

“A story about resilience, overcoming obstacles, and fighting injustice,” the Ziggo Dome described Obama’s story. “As a lawyer, author, and 44th President of the United States, there is no voice more relevant to leaders than this. At this special event, he will talk about this tenure and the work of the Obama Foundation and inspire you with his thoughts on the future of leadership.”

Ticket prices range from 77 euros to 495 euros. Additionally, the event organizer is selling a package of two tickets up front for 2,750 euros. The package includes dinner, a pre-party, and a photo with the former president.
