VFest is a multidisciplinary festival that celebrates the body, gender and queerness. A day and evening filled with activist art, dance, music and performance by artists who share their vision on intersectional feminism, identity and sexuality. This year we’re celebrating our 5th edition and we remain unapologetic! We speak out against injustice, we highlight hidden beauty, we get inspired, we party: without shame!

With these final additions our line up is now complete! VFest will be hosted this year by the absolutely fabulous Claire Despair aka Karlijn de Groot.
Alice Angelsburgen & Antoine Panaché will shine in their duo show ‘All that Jass (Queen)’ and comedian and writer Kim Steinmann shares her hilarious (and sometimes uncomfortable) stories on being trans in a hetcis normative world. And our final addition to the program is the return of Mirusi Mergina with her brand new show. Expect mystery, darkness and horror romantics, coming for your soul.

We’re proud to present the first shows! Arno Verbruggen with their bombastic theater spectacle SODOM and futurist-feminist fever dream Monolith 2: the white piece by Sofie Kramer & Mári Mákó. Percussion & electronica by duo ANGELO: Miss Milivolt & Lola Heijdt and the ever so hot Literary Darkroom. Mixed-abled theater company Speels Collectief, experimental body performance by Anuschka Loose and the shameless art of Assmayonaise. Decorations by Leonie Schepers, limited edition merch from Kutjeskracht and a chill out room by Fem Fataal. And to celebrate our 5th anniversary, Olly Ink offers a wild set of flash tattoos! Get flashed for a small price with unique art by Kutjeskracht, BEFTEX, Olly Ink and more.

VFest is a party for all genders and everything is wheelchair accessible. Floor angels are present and vegan food is available at affordable prices. We have three different ticket types: budget, standard and supporter. A supporter ticket helps fund our budget tickets, be kind and pay what you can.
