Summer Festival

Why choose Dutch Standard?

Organizing a summer festival is not something you do lightly. Dutch Standard Events is all about experience and creativity. We think bigger than a drink with sun and create a festival experience that touches, connects and strengthens. With years of experience in the festival industry, a love for details and a genuine interest in your organizational culture, we create a festival that guests will keep a lasting memory of.

Customization and originality

No standard solutions, but unique stories. Every festival we design is a translation of your goals and core values into the ideal experience for your target group. We combine strategic insight with creative interpretation: from thematic areas to interactive experiences and surprising catering concepts. Everything fits seamlessly with what your organization wants to radiate and how you want to really touch people.

Summer festival opportunities

Customized summer festival

Whether it’s a staff party, anniversary celebration, customer day or a culture-boosting experience, the summer festival is customized. Of course, with live music, food trucks, workshops, and cool activities, and creative chill zones or a mini-conference between performances. Everything is tailored to your objective and target group. We guide you from idea to execution, with a streamlined process where everything is right, down to the last ray of sunshine.

Creative and themed Winter festivals

Enhance the experience with a theme that fits your brand and culture, from “urban jungle” to “Bohemian chic” or “future fest”: we create a world where everything fits. Styling, line-up, food and entertainment are perfectly matched so that the experience is really right.
Would you like to incorporate storytelling around your corporate values into the festival? A sustainable summer festival with circular food & decor? Or just a laid back festival with acoustic music, slow food, and campfires? We invent, design, and produce it with fun & craftsmanship.

Organizing a summer festival in Amsterdam

Amsterdam offers endless possibilities for an iconic summer festival. Think industrial rooftops, hidden courtyard gardens or a private site we convert into a private festival. Combine the festival feel with the creative energy of the city. Dutch Standard knows the city and its locations. We take care of permits, logistics and atmosphere and turn your Amsterdam summer festival into an experience that captures the imagination.

Organizing summer festival in nature

De natuur als decor geeft elk festival extra magie. Denk aan een weide midden in het groen, een open plek in het bos, een strand aan een plas of zelfs een landgoed op een uurtje rijden. Weg van de werkvloer, weg van de prikkels, met ruimte voor ontmoeting en verbinding. Dutch Standard regelt alles. Van locatiekeuze tot technische voorzieningen en eco-deco tot lichtslingers tussen de bomen. En altijd in balans met de omgeving. Zo ontstaat een festival waar vrijheid, beleving en natuur hand in hand gaan.
