Night Beats presents · 3rd Edition
Colour. Music. Food. Togetherness. Almere Holi Festival returns for its 3rd edition in 2027.
A festival of colour and connection
Holi carries traditions of spring, renewal and shared joy from South Asia into communities around the world.
Almere Holi Festival 2027 is being developed as a welcoming meeting point: a place where culture is treated with respect and people can experience colour, rhythm, food and collective celebration together.
Night Beats brings its own language to the programme—electronic music, emerging talent and genre-crossing collaboration—while keeping the festival rooted in human connection.
Programme direction · In development
This is the intended shape of the day. Artists, times and activities will appear only when confirmed.
An open, accessible beginning designed around meeting, music and the first colour of the day.
Collective colour moments, dance and live rhythm bring the festival field into motion.
Bollywood, Indian electronic, Afro House and international dance sounds meet without losing their character.
A final gathering shaped around joy, connection and the full colour of the city.
The experience
Four parts of one festival—planned carefully, announced honestly and experienced together.
Collective colour moments designed with clear material, accessibility and cleanup information before the festival.
Live rhythm, Bollywood, Indian electronic sounds and international dance music moving through one programme.
A food direction rooted in Indian flavours and welcoming festival favourites, with vendors announced only when confirmed.
A celebration intended to welcome families, friends, neighbours and visitors into the same colourful space.
The sound of the day
The final programme will be curated as a journey, not a disconnected playlist. These are directions—not artist or stage confirmations.
Celebrate with care
Participation in colour moments should always be voluntary. Festival guidance will cover consent, eye and respiratory care, clothing, photography, accessibility, approved materials and cleanup.
No colour product, safety claim or environmental promise is confirmed until suppliers, venue conditions and the operating plan have been verified.
Clear guidance will be published before tickets go on sale.
Shape the 3rd edition
The strongest festival is built with artists, food makers, cultural voices and local communities—not added around them afterward.
DJs, musicians, dancers and genre-crossing performers can introduce their work through the Night Beats artist talent pool.
