Word Night

Experience the silence of sound

On Friday, 25 and Saturday, 26 October, the fourth edition of Woordnacht, the festival on current Dutch and Flemish literature, takes place in Rotterdam. This year’s theme is silence: the silence of the taboo. Dozens of writers, poets and artists will again be performing in the vicinity of Central Station and Witte de With quarter on various stages including Arminius, TENT, V2_, Goethe-Institut and the Czech Center, Donner Bookshop, Rotterdam Theater, Chabot Museum, Maaspodium, Het Witte Huis, and De Schouw.

25 & 26 October, multiple locations
