News | dunk!festival 2022: ... gaat naar binnen!



- Persbericht - Many of you got to know dunk!festival as an annual three-day outdoor festival in Velzeke, Belgium, though most of our events actually took place indoors.


𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗳 𝗵𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 Since 2005 we have been organising indoor music events under the prefix 𝑑𝑢𝑛𝑘! - yes, even the first editions of dunk!festival took place indoors!

In 2007 dunk!rock changed to dunk!festival, we moved to our previous location at the Bevegemse Vijvers and organised it as a two-day event until we added an extra festival day in 2011.

For our tenth edition, in 2014, we set up the stages in the rural environments of Velzeke for our first outdoor edition making some changes to the festival site each consecutive year.

We feel we have now reached the glass ceiling at this site and so after giving it some good thoughts we decided to organise our next edition on a new location…


𝗱𝘂𝗻𝗸!𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝗹 𝘅 𝗩𝗼𝗼?𝘂𝗶𝘁 Very stoked to announce dunk!festival and Kunstencentrum Vooruit are joining forces to present 𝒅𝒖𝒏𝒌!𝒇𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒗𝒂𝒍 2022 in Ghent, Belgium on May 26 - 28!

We are truly grateful for the given opportunity to bring our festival to a concert hall with multiple stages and though it will be different from our current location you can still expect three days of post-pleasure in the beautiful venue 𝐷𝑒 𝑉𝑜𝑜𝑟𝑢𝑖𝑡.


Lineup and ticket news will follow soon.
