Dutch Raw Food & Lifestyle Festival
Sunday 12 June
THE festival for vegans. And for those interested in a healthy lifestyle. We ourselves are not vegan, but the health factor and the creativity towards food that is showcased on this festival, attracts us. So we will head to Amsterdam Zuidoost this Sunday. Checking out the food stands, workshops and attend some presentations. And most likely taste some raw chocolate.

Bacchus Wine Festival
10 – 12 June & 17 – 19 June
Wine, food, music, Amsterdamse Bos – and hopefully nice weather. All ingredients for a successful festival. Bacchus Wine Festival is much more than ‘just’ wine. It is above all a festival where you can enjoy the good life. Would you like to know more about wine? Then you can follow workshops or masterclasses. Of course accompanied by drinking wine and a having a bite. There are plenty of food trucks if you get hungry and throughout the weekend there are music performances to increase the atmosphere.

Prik – I love the 80s party
Friday 10 June
Bar Prik is an easy-going, straight-friendly bar in the city centre of Amsterdam. Attracting a mixed crowd, they always come up with different themed parties, that are both relaxed and fun. The theme this Friday night might not be the most original one, but the experience you get, will. Come to Bar Prik and listen to the best 80s tunes by DJ ALX feat. Fatima Supreme.

Audio tour Rijksmuseum on your mobile
Every day
To us, the Rijksmuseum is one of the best museums in Amsterdam. It is a very accessible and innovative museum. It is also an enormous museum and can be difficult to decide where to focus on. That’s why we love their mobile app so much. In the 90 minutes “Highlights” audio tour for instance, you are led along the masterpieces that you simply may not miss. But there are also separate tours along the various collections and a tour about the building itself.
