Festival De Zoete Inval

Discover the sound of Zoetermeer!

Festival De Zoete Inval

Good news: children aged 12 and under have free admission.

A quirky festival for young people, families, and fans of local talent!

Poppodium Boerderij and MusicSoulHouse are joining forces to present a diverse festival where talent from Zoetermeer takes center stage. Across three stages, visitors can enjoy live music, performances, and surprising acts by artists from the region.

A wide range of talented acts will be given a platform: various winners from Kunstbende will perform, along with the winner of the music competition Young Music Talent, as well as a selected act from Gluren Bij De Buren, chosen by a ghost jury.

Beyond music, there is plenty to experience! Join creative workshops, watch live painting, get your face painted, or customise your pass at Digital Art Lab. Browse through vinyl at My Cup Of Vinyl and Blitz Guitarworks, pick up merchandise, or relax with a drink and snack on the Boerderij’s lively terrace. Feeling hungry? Grab some fries from the snack truck of 2Tasty. There are also inspiring activities such as the recycling workshop “Making Musical Instruments” by the “waste teacher” from Kunstgarage Franx.The festival is made possible with the support of various local partners and talent developers, including CKC & Partners, Kunstgarage Franx, Alfrink College, Erasmus College, Oranje Nassau College, Bigband Eastend Sixteen, Eefke de Geus, Kick'n Studios, Gro-Up Jongerenwerk, Jongerenhub Gelijk, and the Zoetermeerse Queer Community.

Come watch, listen, discover, and participate. Festival De Zoete Inval is something you experience together!
