Nuit Blanche 2010.


On the 19th of June the night festival Nuit Blanche will be held in Amsterdam. Former night mayors Josine Neyman & Kristel Mutsers keep their promise: they promised Amsterdam a night without sleep and filled with discoveries and inspiration. This art festival, originated from cities like Paris and Toronto, will change the city from 7 o'clock in the evening till 7 o'clock in the morning into a podium with a wide range of contemporary art.

Nuit Blanche offers a varied program which includes theater, performance, fine art, music, but also installation and light projects, mostly coming from the underground art circuit of Amsterdam. You can have diner in the Tolhuistuin in North by the Table de Nuit, a restaurant especially built for this night. Or you can go to the Central Station, where you can visit the Rockit Cinema, a place where musicians use classic movies or old archives from the Dutch Railways to make new soundtracks on the spot.

But that's not all. Everywhere you go, you find peculiar tracks. A mysterious person or message, a wanderer on the corner. Unravel the mystery. Play the adventure game with your telephone and GPS, developed by Golfstromen in collaboration with Waag Society.


In the upcoming weeks, more will be revealed about this free night event. So keep track of their website to discover all the happenings of this festival.
