  2. Queer Geschiedenismaand 2026

    Door IHLIA @ Multiple locations, Amsterdam

    Queer Geschiedenismaand 2026

    Door IHLIA @ Multiple locations, Amsterdam

    Maart 2026 is de zesde editie van Queer History Month, georganiseerd door IHLIA LBTI+ LGBTI Heritage. Je kunt in heel Nederland verschillende evenementen bezoeken om deze maand te vieren. Maar waarom een hele maand wijden aan queer history? Tijdens deze maand dragen we bij aan de maatschappelijke bewustwording dat gender, sekse en seksuele diversiteit tijdloos zijn. Het is ook een manier om representatie te bevorderen. Queer History Month gaat over herinnering, queer geschiedenis en het belang van dialoog. Het huidige politieke klimaat maakt het steeds moeilijker om met elkaar in gesprek te blijven. Het benadrukken van deze geschiedenissen roept ons op om te herinneren: maak de levens van de queer gemeenschap zichtbaar voor de toekomst, zodat ze niet zo gemakkelijk kunnen worden uitgewist.

  3. Shibari classes

    Lola Lieven, Rodenrijsstraat 43, Amsterdam

    Shibari classes

    Lola Lieven, Rodenrijsstraat 43, Amsterdam

    These classes are designed for absolute beginners, beginners and people who already know how to coil rope, tie a single column tie and double column tie each with double wraps and a square knot.

    Information about the class: Shibari is the term generally used to define Japanese rope bondage. Although it has many similarities to Western bondage (the B of BDSM), Shibari is centred around the dynamic between partners and creates a scene of play where ropes are leading the player. The practice is rooted in eroticism but evolved outside Japan apart from sexual also to artistic practices and community building. The classes are designed for all levels but especially for beginners to give a point of entry and start the journey with ropes. They will give everyone the tools to get started in their practice safely, no matter which role they prefer to take on, tying or getting tied; switching is permitted and encouraged. The event lasts 3 hours of which 2 hours are dedicated to class and 1 hour to free tying, a ‘rope-jam’ where one can practise, tie for fun and socialise and mix with other participants. The topic of each class is different every month and will be announced in advance.

    Bio of the teacher

    Eileen aka Asiana is a kinky switch with a passion for Japanese rope bondage (shibari). She’s the founder of RopeLounge and has been teaching shibari for over 10 years in Amsterdam. The aesthetics and Japanese approach to tying have a great appeal to her. Generally she likes the more challenging way of tying and enjoys seeing her partners suffer in her ropes. From an educational point of view she likes to focus both on the technical part for safety reasons and the playful part for fun.

  4. Erotic Collage Workshop

    Bar Bario, Bilderdijkstraat 186, Amsterdam

    Erotic Collage Workshop

    Bar Bario, Bilderdijkstraat 186, Amsterdam

    This workshop is part of my solo exhibition EROTIC FACES, at Bar Bario, from 18 to 22 March.

    Join me for a fun evening full of creativity and empowerment where you will explore your own eroticism through the art of collage!

    What does “eroticism” mean to you? Where is the line between erotic and pornographic? Why is this topic still taboo in our society?
    In this workshop, we will discuss the subject and create a safe and trusting environment while making erotic collages that explore and express our own eroticism. You will learn some collage techniques as well as the materials and tools needed to produce your unique work.
    No experience is necessary, just bring your enthusiasm and an open (and maybe dirty?) mind and heart.
    All the materials and some snacks will be provided.
    Drinks can be ordered at the bar.

    STOMP Night — Line Dancing Party

    OCCII, Amstelveenseweg 134, Amsterdam

    STOMP is coming to OCCII and we are quakin' in our boots to share the chaotic joy of queer line dancing with you!

    STOMP is coming to OCCII and we are quakin' in our boots to share the chaotic joy of queer line dancing with you 💃🪩

    Our nights are for everyone: first-timers, seasoned line dancers, and anyone in between. We kick off with a few guided lessons so nobody gets left behind, then the music takes over and the floor is ours alllll night long 🎉

    Never done it before? Here's the deal:

    Line dancing is a style of dance where everyone on the floor performs the same choreographed sequence of steps — forming lines, all facing the same direction, all moving together. Super beginner-friendly, and yes, you will pick it up faster than you think 🥾✨

    Curious about the music? The STOMP playlist goes way beyond country — yes you'll see country dances on the floor, but we're known to swap in pop and R&B classics, queer favorites, and anything that'll make you wanna sing along while you dance 🎶

    What is STOMP?

    STOMP is a queer-founded and centered line dancing collective based in Amsterdam, following the legacy of queer dance spaces and LGBTQ cowboy culture in America — with deep ties to the Black and BIPOC communities who helped shape country and dance culture as we know it today. Inspired by collectives like Stud Country (Los Angeles) and Buck Wild (New York), we teach classic country dances mixed with current favorites, all in an atmosphere that's welcoming, joyful, and friendly to every dance level.

  3. Queering Puppets Festival

    Plein Theater, Sajetplein 39, Amsterdam

    Queering Puppets Festival

    Plein Theater, Sajetplein 39, Amsterdam

    Het internationale Queering Puppets Festival Amsterdam biedt van 1 tot en met 6 april opnieuw een podium voor visueel theater, poppenspel en performance in het Plein Theater. Het thema van deze vijfde editie, ‘The Nature of Things’, biedt een radicaal tegengeluid op eurocentrische en koloniale framing en stelt de aanname ter discussie dat de mens centraal staat in de natuur. Visuele theatermakers en performers uit de hele wereld komen tijdens het festival samen om gedurfd en fantasierijk werk te presenteren.

    Queering Puppets Festival Amsterdam is queer, feministisch, activistisch en schittert bovenal in eigenwijsheid. Het is het enige festival in Nederland dat poppen- en objecttheater voor volwassenen koppelt aan queer verbeelding. In de safe space die het poppenspel creëert, kan iedereen zijn wie hen, zij, hij wil. Verwacht een uitdagende mix van lichamen, verhalen die weigeren zich aan te passen in bestaande dominante structuren, visuele & erotische uitspattingen, edgy performances, prikkelende lezingen, queery eten en clubby afters.

    Het festival wil breken met binair denken. Man versus vrouw, mens versus dier, natuur versus kapitalisme en normaal versus afwijkend. Deze grenzen zijn impliciet gewelddadig, onderdrukkend en nooit neutraal – het zijn instrumenten van macht, verbonden aan uitsluiting, disciplinering en vernietiging.

    Maar de natuur van de dingen laat zich niet vastpinnen. Zij is vloeibaar, veranderlijk, rebels. Ze toont zich in lichamen die niet in één categorie passen, in biodiversiteit die weigert te zwijgen, in stemmen die eeuwenlang zijn onderdrukt.

    Initiatiefnemers en artistiek leiders zijn Berith Danse (directeur Plein Theater, theatermaker) en Cat Smits (theatermaker, poppenspeler). Het festival toont onder andere vijf premières waaronder vier internationale producties: spannende, adults only en prettig verontrustende voorstellingen en performances waar poppenspel en objecttheater de grenzen van identiteit doorbreken. Tijdens het Queering Puppets Festival Amsterdam laat je het vanzelfsprekende los en beweeg je mee met transformatie en alternatieve werelden.

    Kom naar het Plein Theater en omarm de magie, niet als ontsnapping, maar als verzet, als collectieve krachtbron.
