Where Art and Music Unite in the Woods

Draaimolen Festival has earned its place as one of the most unique underground festivals in the Netherlands. Each year, it transforms the green surroundings of Tilburg into a magical playground where music, art, and community come together. Visitors don’t just attend Draaimolen – they discover it. Hidden paths, intimate stages, and large-scale art pieces turn every corner into a new surprise.

But beyond the unforgettable atmosphere, Draaimolen is facing a challenge. To secure its future at the MOB Complex in Tilburg from 2026 onwards, the festival is asking its community for support.

A Festival of Discovery 🌲

Walking into Draaimolen feels like stepping into another world. The setting – deep in the forest – gives the festival its distinctive sense of discovery. Whether you stumble upon a rising DJ, an experimental live act, or an art installation glowing between the trees, Draaimolen is about moments that surprise and connect.

Visitors often describe the vibe as warm, kind, and inclusive. It’s not just about dancing to your favorite artists, but also about meeting like-minded people and sharing experiences in a welcoming atmosphere.

Art Meets Music 🎨🎶

What truly sets Draaimolen apart is the seamless integration of art and music. Stages are designed as installations, and visual artists collaborate with musicians to create immersive experiences. Every performance feels like more than just a set – it’s a dialogue between sound and space.

This commitment to creativity makes Draaimolen more than a party. It’s a living gallery, where underground culture finds a powerful voice through both rhythm and design.

The Future at MOB Complex 🏭

For Draaimolen to continue growing, its home at the MOB Complex in Tilburg needs to be secured. From 2026 onwards, this location is uncertain. That’s why the organization has launched a petition, calling on the community to show their support.

By adding your name, you help keep Draaimolen alive – ensuring that future generations can experience the same magic in the woods.
