On Sunday, August 9, Mariënkolder is coming to the Den Helder open-air theater. Enjoy an afternoon and evening full of music, poetry, and a summery atmosphere.

Bring your own food and drink, find a nice spot in the grass, and let yourself be carried away by words, rhythms, and stories.

Listen, dance, and wander along

Under the open sky, you hear musicians, bands, and poets from within and outside Den Helder. Sometimes you dance along to the music. Sometimes you pause at a line that lingers. Here, music and poetry meet in a relaxed festival atmosphere.

Program

The festival starts at 1:00 PM with an opening by Tomas Kos. Following this, the program includes Loessie Furr, Michiel Tegelberg, MJ, Senja Sargeant, Konkelfoes, Ronin, Frankie Goes to.., and Kozzeltov, among others. In between, you will hear poetry by Yanaika Zomer, Sky Molijn, Nadine Cecilia, Han Pieters, Jelle van der Wal, and Brian Möhlmann, among others.
