An installation as a beacon in the landscape. For two days, the visible heart of the festival.
Not a schedule to tick off — a rhythm to step into. This is what your day looks like on the grounds.
Regional breakfast in the orchard, classical music between the vegetable beds, an art route through the gardens.
Lunch from regional chefs at long tables. First workshops: fermenting, weaving, sowing.
Spoken word at the Wonder Stage. Children building in Seedlings. Light falling through the trees.
Dinner under the trees. Folk and jazz in the Sound Field. The Temporary Monument lights up.
Bands on the main stage, a gentle beat in the forest. The night you discover something new.

The UNESCO village of Frederiksoord is a landscape with a plan: gardens, forest, and agriculture in one system.
Nieuwe Gilde lands right in the middle — as a temporary village where you don't just watch, but participate.
Frederiksoord sits in the heart of Drenthe, surrounded by forest and farmland. You're there sooner than you think:
