Cellist and artistic director Pamela Smits has once again been able to put together a wonderful season of eight special concerts, with a selection of great musicians. The celebration of the existence of 750 years of Amsterdam runs like a common thread through the series.

Architectural Gesamtkunst

Art, according to the Amsterdam architect Hendrik Petrus Berlage (1856-1934), should do much more than just please and surprise: art should express what lives in society, or should live. In the art of his time, and in his case specifically in architecture, Berlage wanted to see the desire for 'brotherhood among all people' expressed. One of the characteristics of Berlage's work is that all his designs are based on the idea of ​​the Gesamtkunstwerk.

Berlage's great-grandson, cabaret artist and writer Vincent Bijlo, inherited Berlage's idea that art should say something about the world we live in, from his ancestor.

The music reinforces these stories and the architectural Gesamtkunst element.

In this 'Gesamtkunst' performance in De Beurs – a crown jewel from Berlage's oeuvre – great-grandfather, great-grandson and a quintet of passionate celebrated musicians are connected by space, text and music.

The aim of this 'holiday fair for special trips' is to create an environment where mass tourism does not set the tone, but where quality and authenticity are chosen selectively!

Fair for Special Journeys Amsterdam 2024

At this special holiday fair you will not find any tourist information stands, but almost exclusively specialized tour operators, who often offer a country or a type of travel and know everything about it! In addition to going off the beaten track, ‘special’ also means that your journey only starts in the country or area of arrival. These are often active holidays and not sitting or beach holidays.

‘Special’ also means that you are guided past tourist ‘highlights’ that you can get from a guide, but through customization that gets to know facets of a country that only an expert can tell you.

Be surprised on two fantastic days where you also have the opportunity to choose from approx. 250 ‘live presentations’ about unknown parts of Europe and parts of the world that are often cheaper than you think! ‘Special’ means: gaining refreshing new experiences!

Openings hours:

– Saturday January 6th, 11 am – 6:30 pm

With the Dutch Lion Awards we offer a platform to fashion talents who live and work in the Netherlands and who clearly show new trends and innovation in their work. A nomination for these awards boosts their notoriety.

The Dutch Lion Awards come in various categories. They are awarded during a dazzling gala show, in which all nominees show their masterpiece.

An event that stimulates the fashion industry in the Netherlands

The Netherlands is an international leader in the fashion industry. Our country has big and well-known fashion names, who are also at the top internationally. We have thriving and leading fashion schools. But … there is no annual fashion award gala, which offers Dutch fashion talents a platform. A gala like the one that takes place with great grandeur in London, Paris, New York and Milan. The Netherlands needs such an event! The Dutch Lion Awards Foundation will work hard for this.

Positive effect on the image of the fashion sector

Dutch Lions Awards aims to put the Netherlands higher on the map as a fashion country. Partly because of the annual Fashion Awards Gala. We strive for a better image of the Netherlands as a fashion country. We want to integrate diversity and inclusion more into the fashion world.

The Dutch Lion Awards Gala is an annual event.
