As Utrecht’s spring steadily seeps into summer, we’re thrilled to announce that Zenith & u festival soon returns to its natural habitat of de Nijverheid.

On Saturday 11 July, Zenith, o3o, De Nijverheid & Stranded FM come together once again for a full day-into-night programme interweaving local experimentalism with influential artists from further afield.

A night moving between first-time Dutch debuts and familiar underground currents: Billy TSTRK, Nashpaints & Raychi step in with new work and live directions, while Nelcon & Puurvuur unfold a new collaboration rooted in Utrecht’s evolving scene. Mel Keane returns alongside a spread of local acts threading everything together.

Unfettered by set disciplines, genres or moods, Zenith & U festival celebrates the city’s multifaceted creative curiosity through live performances, DJ sets & installations, each shaped by a shared collaborative ethos.

The people at Zenith & U Festival have kindly offered a limited amount of free tickets for Subbacultcha members. Please make a reservation by sending an email to mailinglist@subbacultcha.nl with ‘Zenith & U Festival’ in the subject line + your name in the email.
