We hope to offer you an amazing programme filled with Pleasure, Art and Science, for free. We are looking forward to meeting everyone in real life again. It’s time we slowly let go of the pause mode we put our lives in. Not to jump back to a stressful existence with overflowing calendars, but to get together again, to mutually enjoy beautiful stories, theatre, engaging scientists, art, music and each other.

As of now we are still mindful of social distancing. This means we are setting the festival up on a spacious terrain so we won’t be packed together in small spaces of old buildings, as we were during previous editions.

Another main difference is that there won’t be a terrain where you can walk around from one stage to another, but a programme consisting of activities in blocks for which you can make reservations. However, it will still be a menu full of unexpected flavors and combinations.

The programme of Friday the 3 rd will be confined to the opening of PAS, but our Saturday programme will start earlier than usual, at noon. The festival lineup will be known after 1 July.

Many things remain uncertain. Necessary measures in the fight against COVID-19 may force us to make changes. That’s we’re asking you to keep an eye on our socials, newsletters and website for up- to-date information. Regardless, mark and highlight 3 and 4 September in your calendar. We are looking forward to seeing you again!

We also have a Dutch website, with all the Dutch spoken activities.
