De Parade x Kunsthal
28 June, 2026
Known for its quirky mix of theatre, music, dance and visual art, Theaterfestival de Parade has been a travelling spectacle for more than thirty years. From intimate performances in one of the theatre tents to guided tours by the candy girls, Rotterdam has long been a regular stop for De Parade. This year, the festival once again settles among the trees and museums of the familiar Museumpark from 19 to 28 June.
On Sunday 28 June, the Kunsthal and De Parade join forces for a day full of theatre, music, art and wonder. During this special collaboration, there is plenty to experience! For example, book the KunstHoppen & Parade Tour with the candy girls. Or let young aspiring illustrators join this special Parade edition of See You Later, Illustrator!
