Fringe Program

Zwijnenstal

In the Zwijnenstal (the Boar’s Den), you tumble from one surprise into the next. Absurdist theatre, workshops you never could’ve imagined - but also wouldn’t have wanted to miss - and intimate performances with a golden edge. A magical spot within the Rotterdam Bluegrass Festival.

Dance Workshops

This summer, Rotterdam gets its very own ADE: an Acoustic Dance Event. Rotterdam Bluegrass Festival is already known for some serious dancing, and this year we're turning it up a notch. Get ready to stomp to bluegrass beats, square dance like a pro, and try your hand at non-linear dancing - the opposite of line dancing - until you reach that ultimate natural high!

(Children's) Workshop Tent

At the Rotterdam Bluegrass Festival, your kids will be having so much fun, you might just forget they're even there! With musical and creative workshops that are actually fun, they'll be fully entertained. In fact, good luck convincing them to leave…

We have a Museum for Just a Tiny Bit of Modern Art with museum director Gerard and ongoing painting, sculpting workshops. And especially on Sunday Nick Shouders (the Nick Shoulders - see line-up) gives drawing workshops.
