After a two-year halt, Dekmantel Festival finally returns this summer.

We’re delighted to reunite from August 3 until August 7 under the trees of the Amsterdamse Bos, and in a few beloved venues around the IJ river.
Five days of performance in and outside of Amsterdam, occurring day and night, drawn from all corners of the musical spectrum – 120+ artists will be pushing innovative sounds and navigating the outer limits of their musical spectrum.

Once again, we found a home for a roster of artists that spans wider than ever, spread across Wednesday’s tentpole Opening Concerts; Thursday’s extensive pre-programme of talks, film screenings, radio shows, club events, split across venues either side of Amsterdam’s IJ river; and the Friday to Sunday daytime festival, encompassing eight stages in the leafy, spacious and now-infamous Amsterdamse Bos. We can’t wait to explore it all with you.

Check out the full programme here.
