GLOW Festival

For eight days, the city of Eindhoven will be all about ‘Light Arts’ during GLOW, the biggest light art festival of the Netherlands.

In November, Eindhoven will show off why it's still referred to as the City of Lights in the Netherlands. For eight whole days, the city will revolve around light art. During Glow Eindhoven, the city centre of Eindhoven will transform into one huge open-air museum.

Heaven for photographers
Each year, more than half a million visitors shoot terabytes of photos of the most astonishing light installations. The latest projection, sensor, animation and computer techniques create a masterpiece for both the naked eye and the camera lens.

Authentic Eindhoven
GLOW reflects and casts a critical eye on the influence of light in public spaces. Thanks to the practical symbiosis between light and art, architecture and design, GLOW Eindhoven fits perfectly into the strong high-tech character of the region of Eindhoven. In selecting artists and designers, the organising committee was also keen to ensure diversity in materials used and projection techniques.

Glow Spots
Every edition of Glow has several cafe, restaurant and bar 'Spots' along the route. Inspiring and surprising food and drink concepts that fit well with the image GLOW Eindhoven has - each with their own individual vibe. You can eat dinner, have a drink or a quick bite to eat, but it's also a great place to relax for a few minutes, or to warm up. A unique food experience for both individuals and groups.

Each square has a GLOW installation for you to experience or look at, all while enjoying a drink or a snack. And all the Spots are run by enthusiastic entrepreneurs from Eindhoven.
