Amsterdam is gearing up for one of the most exciting events of the year: Parels van de Stad festival 2025. This two-day urban festival in Amsterdam 2025 transforms Riekerhaven into a vibrant playground of music, culture, and community.

A festival full of surprises
On Saturday, September 13 (12:00-23:00) and Sunday, September 14 (13:00-23:00), Amsterdam’s Riekerhaven will come alive with multiple stages, each offering a different vibe: from the explosive beats of TIKTAK x Puna to the smooth grooves of Gowtu x Waterkant and the late-night flair of Jimmy Woo’s “Behind Closed Doors.” Whether you’re into hip-hop, afro, house, or eclectic pop, the Parels van de Stad Amsterdam lineup has something for everyone.
Beyond the music, the festival is known for its friendly atmosphere, creative setups, and eco-friendly recycle system. Drinks are paid with Parels tokens, easily topped up by card or QR code, keeping things smooth and cashless. The vibe is carefree, but the entry rules are clear: it’s a strictly 18+ event, and a valid ID is required at the gate.
