Oerdrift & Goosebumps @ Camping de Lievelinge – September 30

Camping de Lievelinge is unique in its kind. What's that about? Perhaps the origins of the camping-plus explain this best: De Lievelinge is the brainchild of the owners of creative production company WINK, once (and still at heart) a proud Utrecht company. However, an office in the former Shell tower in Amsterdam North, Adam Tower, was a golden opportunity, they couldn't pass it up, so that's where they are now. Which doesn't matter at all for this story. Anyway. WINK – experience architects they call themselves – is a company that organizes many large international events and collects countless props during all those events, fairs and festivals, from small trinkets to hefty decor pieces. That experience in the field of events and festivals, that ability to create a tangible dream, truly an experience, and that playground of props, formed the basis of a place where there is a party all year round, with a long-lasting highlight. in the summer months.

One relaxed ongoing event actually, as there is no need to peak in a few days. Sometimes with live music, often with a barbecue, usually with that unmistakable, incomprehensible bohemian atmosphere that spreads across the site in small, cozy hotspots of private parties, and always with good people. Did we mention that everything looks beyond crazy? A hodgepodge of gypsy caravans, all decorated in great detail (even the doctor's novels are included), converted buses to sleep in, unique and gigantic mirror tents (own property), luxurious wooden cabins, a lake, a swing, a bar in an old carousel and a cozy wooden main restaurant. Fan, we are.

Now that the season is really coming to an end, the people of De Lievelinge would like nothing more than to end the summer in style, as you would expect from them. That party is going to happen on the weekend of September 30, rain or shine, because it will be 'multi-dimensional, interdisciplinary, supernatural and extraordinary!', as they say themselves. Nice. Head in the clouds, feet in the clay.

You can come and set up your tent on Friday, which can remain in place until Sunday for a special Lievelinge weekender with the highlight on Saturday, around it 'just' the always nice own Lievelinge thing: cocktails at the outdoor bar, pizza, campfire, peeking at the neighbors... Jamming a bit and of course building your primal outfit with the help of the special pop-up edition of Leo and Mirjam's bird of paradise & party animal vintage decorate stall. Hoppa. And that was only Friday. On Saturday, De Lievelinge starts with breakfast and yoga and the program of music, performances, workshops and art installations starts at 12.00 noon. Until 01.00 a.m., then the music turns off again (although the campfire remains on for a while). Yoga again on Sunday, the well-known Lievelinge brunch with nice music and, for the last time this season, the Sunday higher state of Lievelinge vibe. You can find out for yourself what that is.
