Over het evenement
BabelFestival is a free summer festival at the BabelBühne. A green oasis in the frayed edges of the city, with a bamboo stage, grandstand and sun loungers around a well.
On Friday evenings, young curators and their artists hijack the site with Urban Sounds, vocal beatboxes & beats, while the cooking pots smell of culinary herbs from all over the world.
Stiff cheeks? That can most likely happen to you after tonight, because game and writing coach Latif Aït brings the cream of his aspiring comedians to the stage.
Program starts at 8 pm.
Hungry & thirsty?
BabelBar is open from 5 pm!
