Stukafest Amsterdam: Open Call 2026!

Turning Rooms Into Stepping Stones

We’re super excited that you’re interested in taking part in Stukafest Amsterdam 2026! <3

Are you an artist, performer, writer, musician, or maker in the broadest and most creative sense - someone who loves sharing their work in a space where the audience is literally within arm’s reach? Then we are looking for you!

On Saturday, March 14, 2026, we’ll celebrate the nineteenth edition of Stukafest Amsterdam! During this festival, we transform student rooms across the city into intimate stages for art, performance and encounters. Each room becomes more than just a stage: it’s a steppingstone for artists, a place where new journeys begin, where audiences discover unexpected perspectives and where hopefully encounters extend beyond the walls of the room itself.

We’re looking for a wide range of makers: from emerging artists with experience to new projects, bands or performers who are just starting their journey on stage. Whether you make music, perform theater, dance, write or do something that doesn’t fit into any category - we want to hear from you!

What we offer:

  • A stage where you can perform a minimum of three times on one day, with each set lasting approximately 45 minutes for an intimate audience.
  • A financial fee.
  • A delicious (vegetarian/vegan) meal on location.
  • Promotion of your act through our program booklet, website, and social media channels.
Afterwards, we’ll close the evening with an afterparty - and of course we hope you’ll join us too! 

Fill out the form below, and who knows, you might be performing on one of the Stukafest stages soon.

P.S. This year we’re continuing our tradition of Stuka Sessions!
We’re looking for volunteers who also want to perform during the Stuka Session at the end of January.
See the bottom of the form for the registration option.

APPLICATION DEADLINE: 30th of November, 2025

We will contact you by 14th of December at the latest!
