STUK kicks off the season with two days jam-packed with concerts, dance, installations and DJ sets in all corners of the building. On Thursday, expect ripping guitars, experimental KRAAK residents and a jubilant afterparty by Queer Leuven. On Friday we have a huge party with our friends of nacht, from djs to live electronica and rap. On both days you can also enjoy a festive dance performance and audiovisual installations.

PRACTICAL

➤ Entrance via Naamsestraat.
➤ You buy one ticket (per night), which allows you to choose what you want to see and hear throughout the evening.
➤ First come, first served. The venues have limited capacities, so come to the venues on time if you want to be sure to have a seat.
➤ Come early, because at 7pm we give a free apero!
➤ Drinks allowed in the entire building except for Soetezaal, Studio, Ensemblezaal and Cinema ZED.
➤ Drinks can be paid with bank card only

SAFER SPACE

STUK aims to be an inclusive space for everyone. We take every form of intimidation seriously. Don't hesitate to talk to a STUK colleague or a person behind the bar - all STUK colleagues wear a fluorescent badge, the care team wear a blue vest and luminous bracelet.
