KOPCafé x Breda Barst: Festival Art

During this edition, right in the middle of the festival site, KOPcafé will discuss art at festivals such as Lowlands, the role of performance and how participation creates new encounters between artists and enthusiastic festivalgoers.

Already at Breda Barst? Then join the KOPCafé for an inspiring conversation with our artists! Coming especially for the KOPCafé? You can then round off the evening with a visit to one of Breda’s best (and free) festivals.

With a mirror, you will set off individually and leave your thoughts on paper for others to read.
