Next week marks the start of the second edition of Friend Week.  

From Wednesday 23 to Wednesday 30 April, we will put our Friends in the spotlight during the Week of the Friend. A week full of special activities, exclusively for the Target Friends, as a thank you for their indispensable support. 

A peek behind the scenes 
During this week, we open doors that normally remain closed. Friends of de Doelen can attend a rehearsal of a special concert, get a tour behind the scenes, follow an Art Walk along the works of art in the building and get a technical look behind the scenes from one of our technicians. We also make a number of concert recordings from the archive available especially for our Friends.  

Friends of De Doelen 
Friends enable us to continue investing in innovative programming, education, talent development and special musical projects and experiences. Thanks to their contributions, every season we can offer hundreds of talents a stage, involve young visitors in music and culture and stimulate experimentation. This is how we build the future of music and de Doelen together. 

Friends start at €60 a year (only €5 a month). As a token of appreciation, they receive invitations to exclusive events such as the Friend's Week, receive discounted or free admission to selected concerts and stay informed via the newsletter about everything that is made possible thanks to them.
