The Windows Festival is a unique, city-wide celebration that transforms Amsterdam’s streets into an open-air gallery. For one weekend, windows become vibrant canvases for storytelling, art, performances, and community connection — showcasing collaborative voices and inspiring new perspectives along some of the city’s most iconic buildings. Everyone is welcome to create, participate, and experience the festival as a living expression of community spirit and creativity.
