Festival Spring Loaded: secrets in the city

It's not a Red Sofa anniversary without a bicycle ride to short performances at secret locations in the city!
Spring Loaded pop-up artist in residence Monica Germino will be there. The rest is a secret, except that there will be music in 4 locations in the Delfshaven district, and that a world premiere will be in almost every space…
An irresistible and surprising way to get to know both new music and hidden places in Rotterdam.
 
The starting point: De Machinist in Delfshaven, at 19.00
Address: Willem Buytewechstraat 45

An extraordinary series of concerts
For 10 years now, De Doelen has been presenting modern music in an accessible manner under the name 'Red Sofa.' With a bright red sofa on stage as a symbol of hospitality and by providing every concert with free introductions, follow-up talks and meet & greets with musicians and composers, a sound world unknown to many has been unlocked for the past 10 years. With around 10,500 filled seats at Red Sofa concerts in 2017, de Doelen has managed to set up the largest community for new music in the Netherlands. Ten years of Red Sofa will be celebrated with the six-day Festival Spring Loaded from 21 to 26 March 2018.
