Gabbergrass: Learn to stomp your feet Rotterdam Style to bluegrass

When: Saturday 12:30 hrs and Sunday 15:15 hrs in the Zwijnenstal 

Last summer, we discovered that the traditional dance styles of bluegrass aren’t so different from Rotterdam’s signature dance: gabber, with which we achieved worldwide fame. We want you to see and feel it for yourselves. Because the more we focus on similarities rather than differences, the more beautiful the world becomes!

For Julia Beets, gabber and hardcore are more than music. They’re a lifestyle, a culture, a community. During the festival, she’ll lead a stomping/gabber workshop that immerses you in the energy, rhythm, and pride of this unique and truly Dutch subculture.

Julia loves showing people her world while discovering new influences herself. She can’t wait to explore together the surprising energy and dance parallels between bluegrass and gabber.
