Sneekweek Music Squares
- Friday 31 July t/m Thursday 6 August
During Sneekweek there are several music squares in the center of Sneek, with different music genres and live performances. On music squares and also at many cafes there are indoor and outdoor live music performances.
OUTDOOR LOCATIONS / SQUARES
On the Marktstraat is the biggest stage of Sneekweek. Between the cozy cafes and busy terraces, there is party here every night with live bands on the main stage. In the breaks a DJ plays on a smaller stage, so the music goes on non-stop. You can hear a bit of everything here: pop, rock, party music, dance and sing-alongs.
Grand Café de Walrus is again organizing the event De Beestenboel during Sneekweek this year. On the Schaapmarktplein several nationally known DJs such as, for example, Quintino, All Tha Fokk, Team Rush Hour and Freddy Moreiro will provide a great party until the late hours.
Café Fokk's builds a big stage on the Prins Hendrikkade during Sneekweek and organizes a real party there every night. Every night there are well-known Dutch-speaking artists on stage, interspersed with party DJs and local toppers. You will hear plenty of sing-alongs, party music and fun hits. The square is full of people singing, dancing and enjoying the atmosphere together. Typical of a place where every night is fun and where it is easy to linger a little longer.
On the Jousterkade is music square de Kroon, near Café de Kroon. On this music square you will be surprised by Good Times DJ Team, TimeMaud and ABBA on Sunday. The Crown Jewels are local DJs. Click on the link for the entire program, which is definitely worth it.
The terrace of Brasserie De Koperen Kees turns into Atsje & Leo's Goud van Oud Boulevard from Friday to Tuesday. Here in the Julianastraat from Friday to Tuesday you will enjoy live music with the atmosphere of yesteryear: golden oldies, blues and timeless classics. A nice place for those who love good music, a drink and lively street life!
At 't Ouwe Vat on the 1e Oosterkade there is a party every night during Sneekweek (except Thursday). On the outdoor stage artists provide atmosphere, sing-alongs and fun. What makes this place extra special: brass band De Putkapel traditionally comes here twice (Sunday and Wednesday). Overlooking the water and the bridge, this is a popular spot where you can easily linger for a good evening of music and atmosphere.
In the Kleine Kerkstraat, it's party time every night. There are several DJs on this stage every day who provide a varied program and a lot of fun. From house and dance to party music and sing-alongs - the atmosphere is always good. Every night the street turns into a cozy open-air club where the rhythm goes on non-stop until the late hours.
