Maastricht’s biggest Art Night Out is back. For the tenth time, museums, cultural institutions and creative spaces across the city throw open their doors until deep into the night — and this year it’s a landmark anniversary edition.

Expect a diverse programme packed with workshops, presentations, shows, exhibitions, music, film, food and dance. One ticket gets you into everything.

Pick a starting location, swap your ticket for a wristband, and hop freely between all participating venues on the hop-on hop-off buses running throughout the night.

Highlights

🎭 Poetry pharmacy — One of the rooms at Bonnefanten Museum transforms into a poetry pharmacy for the evening, where poetry is approached as something to be administered — not as a solution, but as presence in time.

🎵 Nieuw Nederland — A boundary-pushing collaboration between the raw, rhythmic sound of hip-hop collective Afslag Zuid and the timeless, refined sounds of a symphony orchestra.

🥂 Exclusive cocktails — Cocktail specialists Shake and Serve bring an exclusive signature cocktail, specially created for this evening, to the Natural History Museum.

🚢 Silent disco on the Maas — A boat runs every hour from the city centre to ENCI and Ainsi — with a silent disco on deck the whole night long. Pick your track and dance on the water.

🎉 Afterparty — Holders of a combi-ticket can keep dancing until 5:00 AM at the official afterparty in De Muziekgieterij.
