Canal FestivalThe Grachtenfestival is the annual festival with (classical) music on special locations in the centre of Amsterdam and on the IJ banks. Every year new locations are added. These locations stand out because of special or monumental architecture and cultural and historical value.
The Grachtenfestival makes a special effort to provide a stage for young talent. Also part of this event is the Kindergrachtenfestival, which brings productions for babies, toddlers and teenagers. Many of the concerts are free of charge or accessible against a small fee. View the Program.
Cosmo Polite’s boat will be at the Final Concert on the Canals on Sunday. View the invitation.
