Pinkpop Festival 2025

WHERE: Landgraaf, the Netherlands
WHEN: from 20th to 22nd June 2025

One of the most anticipated musical events of the summer returns to Holland: the Pinkpop Festival. It is an annual music festival that has been held since 1970 in the Netherlands. An event whose numbers are the index of its extraordinary popularity; in fact, in over 35 editions, the Festival has seen the participation of about one and a half million people, and over 400 bands who took the stage.

The Festival takes place in Landgraaf, a Dutch town in the province of Limburg, about 30 minutes from Maastricht. The name of the exhibition derives from the Dutch term Pinksteren, or Pentecost. The Pinkpop, in fact, originally took place on a single date, the day of Pentecost. In 1995, given the turnout, the organizers moved the exhibition to two days and then transformed it, after just two years, into what would have been the current edition.

The 2025 edition of the Festival takes place, as usual, over three days, and will see the participation of great international artists from the rock and pop scene. Justin Timberlake, Olivia Rodrigo and Muse will headline the three-night festival.

Lots of music and, above all, lots of fun and sharing, thanks to the presence of the Campsite where you can spend the rest of the day.

PRACTICAL INFO

HOW TO GET

Maastricht/Aachen is the closest international airport to Landgraaf. The fact that the direct connections are rather small makes this solution impractical. Unless you find advantageous combinations by making a stopover.

The train, therefore, is the best way to get there. On Saturday, special direct runs are guaranteed from Heerlen station to Maastricht, Eindhoven, and other destinations. In addition, some trains connect with the night lines in Utrecht and Amsterdam.

From the Landgraaf train station, a special Shuttle Bus allows you to easily reach the Pinkpop Festival and the camping area. The bus is FREE for all those who have a valid entrance ticket to the festival.
