A Luminous Fall

October to December

We're leaving the summer behind, but don't worry: the packed cultural season is in full swing from October to December. And this year we are going bigger than ever! Night owls, culture vultures, film fanatics and dreamers will be short of days this autumn. With the national premiere of Daan Roosegaarde's SPARK, the premiere of the musical De Tocht and many autumn festivals and events, you will experience the longest evening programme of the year in Leeuwarden. A ‘skitterend’ (splendid) autumn.
