5x Events during the Whitsun weekend

Hello, extra long weekend! Yeah, you got it right, it's Whitsun this weekend. That means you've got an extra day to sleep in and enjoy Eindhoven. From going on a wine-centered world tour to discovering classical music, there's plenty to do! 

Storioni Festival @Various locations | untill May 26th

A must-visit: the Storioni Festival. This Eindhoven chamber music festival has been surprising visitors since 2007, and this year will be no different. Not really into classical music? No problem! During Music in the Streets on Saturday, May 25th, you can get to know top-notch musicians at various spots in the city center, free of charge. Are you an urban daredevil? Then we recommend the opening concerts on Monday, May 20th, at skate Walhalla Area 51. That's music to our ears! 

BLEND wine festival @Stadswandelpark | May 17th to 20th

Wine, wine, and more wine! Stadswandelpark turns white, red, and pink during the BLEND Wine Festival. The crème de la crème of regional wine suppliers will surprise you with hundreds of quality wines from all over the world. Delicious! And you won't go hungry, as there will be plenty of perfect matching bites. That's what we call a fantastic Whitsun outing!

Vikingfest @PreHistorisch Dorp | May 18th to 20th

Over 200 Vikings are coming to the PreHistorisch Dorp this Whitsun. And you can be there too! Ever wondered what it was like in the Viking era? After visiting the Vikingfest at the PreHistorisch Dorp, you'll know all about it. There's plenty to do, see, and experience for all ages, from wandering around a market in the year 723 to designing your own amulets.

Punksteren @POPEI De Pub | May 17th

The name says it all: top-notch punk music at POPEI De Pub this Whitsun. A fortune? Definitely not! At Punksteren, you can have the best spot in the house (which is everywhere) for only eleven euros! We couldn't think of a better deal. And as the cherry on top, you have Whitsun Monday to recover!

Bonus tip: Dance the night away

Spring is in full swing and that calls for a celebration. Yes, with a party! You don't have to sit still during the Whitsun weekend. For example, go to PIÑA XL (Latin), PIXL 014 (house), Tasty Folk (house), Vroeg Zat (Dutch for getting druk early ... ) or Faction (drum and bass). More events? Take a look at our events agenda.
