Summer Sickness - Urban Arts festival

Feel the vibe of Summer Sickness – the ultimate festival for bold adventurers and creative doers. This isn't your typical event; it's an explosion of urban arts, live performances, and raw self-expression. Whether you dance, rap, write, or build beats, you’ll step straight into a world buzzing with talent and fresh energy.

All day long, you can dive into whatever moves you. Throw yourself into a breakdance workshop, test your skills in a beat battle, or surprise yourself with a spoken word or street art session. Own the stage during the Funky Feet battle, the Coindrop Battle, or the 3vs3 all style battle with Raw Essence. For creators who like to think deeper, join the panel talk on Hip Hop in 2025 – sharp, challenging, and straight from the culture.

Ready to speak your truth? Join the Poetry Slam and battle for a spot at the Dutch Nationals. Or cut loose at Enter the Hills, with live shows by XNMI, Jip, and Duimalot.

And just when you think the day can’t get any better – Hef steps on stage as the headliner. With his signature sound and influence – from groundbreaking music to the popular Rookworst podcast – he keeps proving why he's a true icon.

Summer Sickness is your playground. Explore, create, jump in – anything goes. One thing's for sure: you don’t want to miss this.
