On Thursday, November 6, the lights go on in ‘t Stadshart!
Throughout the entire festival month, this is the place to eat, create, meet, and enjoy many free performances. That calls for a celebration! We’ll be serving toasted sandwiches at the opening of pop-up restaurant De Voedselbar, there’s plenty to see and do right away in Studio Stadshart, and as soon as the clock strikes five, we’ll treat you to a free drink. And… there’s a Top Secret Evening Program. For those who love to move: it’s guaranteed to be danceable. In short, a full and festive preview of everything lined up this month in your new favorite living room!

About the Stadshart
From November 5 to 23, Podium Explore transforms into the Stadshart. Every afternoon, a different local scene or community hosts a DIY session under the name Studio Stadshart. One day you can solder guitar pedals, the next you’ll learn how to make your own sourdough starter. And in the evening, unwind with bands, talks, and performances!
*All Stadshart programs are free to attend, with the exception of Dood Paard – 3 x from Moscow + 🖤.
Is there food?
Yes. Pop-up restaurant De Voedselbar serves lunch, dinner, and all-day snacks. The Stadshart is basically your favorite café, just one where there’s always something cool to do or see. It’s also the perfect place to connect with creative scenes, neighbors, friends, and communities from the region. Open daily from 12:00 to 00:00!
