After not operating for two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Amsterdam-based Dekmantel Festival will return this summer.

The five-day festival will run from August 3rd-7th with events taking place along the banks of the IJ River and the Amstderdamse Bos city park. Over 120 artists are scheduled to play, with opening night shows by Young Marco, Jonny Nash, and local DJ upsammy. Events on Thursday include a series of talks, film screenings, and radio shows. On Friday, DJs will play sets spread across eight different stages throughout Amsterdamse Bos.

Announcing the news, organizers wrote, “The wait has been long, but the return is sweeter and ever: our full Dekmantel Festival 2022 lineup is here.” They go on to describe the “leafy, spacious, and now-infamous” park. The statement ends with, “We can’t wait to explore it with you.”

Ticket buyers who have preregistered will be able to purchase tickets from a small batch beginning on Thursday, March 24th. After that, any remaining tickets go on sale March 25th.
