what is Noorderslag weekend?
In short: a music lovers dream come true, with 180 bands performing
within a five minute walk radius.
Noorderslag started out as a single festival night in De Oosterpoort with
the best and most promising Dutch acts. Nine years ago EuroSonic was added
as was the presentation of the important Dutch pop and rock music award
De Popprijs.
Noorderslag Weekend has now turned into a full-blown three-day event.
During these three days in January, Groningen is the epicentre of
the European music scene when 180 bands and 1800 professionals get
together for the prime European showcase and network event. With
two festivals and
a seminar for music industry professionals, the Noorderslag Weekend
is the main network and information point for the Dutch music industry
and the European live music industry, and moreover the most important platform
to see European and Dutch talent on stage. Noorderslag Weekend is a unique
opportunity to get Dutch and European bands under the attention of a wide
range of national and international parties in the music industry and the
Dutch audience. With just one ticket you can experience the best new bands
from all over Europe...
