Rotterdam Unlimited

The Netherlands is known for being a multicultural country and maybe no city as much as Rotterdam. Holland’s second-largest city hosts a variety of people with different backgrounds, having over 180 nationalities. All those different cultures have had quite the impact on its city. The festival Rotterdam Unlimited displays, celebrates and embraces the diversity of those cultures, attracting a total of 900,000 visitors. Brass bands, calypso dances, a summer carnival complete with a parade, music performances, poetry: you name it and it will be there from 25 – 29 July. Taking place throughout the streets of Rotterdam, there are three central hotspots: the Coolsingel, Hofplein and Stationsplein. Festival director Guus Dutrieux is excited about the upcoming edition of the annual event.
