Kick-off: DARK Halloween festival Eindhoven

DARK is more than just a Halloween festival. It’s a large-scale cultural participation project in which hundreds of Eindhoven residents collaborate to create a unique festival evening filled with theater, music, dance, art, and unexpected encounters.

During the kick-off, you’ll kick off the process together with other participants. You’ll be introduced to the project, meet the creators, and get to know the other participants. You’ll also receive more information about the rehearsals, workshops, and the various roles you can take on during the festival.

Whether you want to act, be an extra, perform, dance, help with set construction, or are simply curious about what DARK is all about: everyone is welcome. No experience is necessary. Enthusiasm and a desire to create something special together are all you need. Throughout the program, you’ll work alongside other participants toward DARK on October 31. Under the guidance of professional creators, you’ll develop characters, scenes, and performances that will become part of the festival.

Join us, meet new people, discover your creative side, and help immerse Eindhoven in darkness for one evening.
