Het Pop-Up Festival

Het Pop-Up Festival returns to Tilburg on September 20, this time larger and spread across new venues including 013 Poppodium, Cul de Sac and V39. The festival is a springboard for emerging hip-hop, alternative, indie and electronic talent from the south. Previous participants like Heath and Grote Geelstaart have since found success. This edition welcomes KEROL, Ohne Umlaut, Faylo and Plastic Family, supported by partners including Het Pophuis, Rockacademie and Trix Antwerpen. The extensive day program features inspiring panels, fringe programming, Stoom Tapes, Demopitch, Vinylclub and speed dates with music industry professionals like bookers and label A&Rs. Entry is based on a 'pay what you want' principle, removing barriers and letting visitors set their own price. This initiative offers young artists exposure and valuable connections.
