Many programs are free to attend. Check the calendar for current information!

Kantoortuin (office garden) | Mon-Fri 9am-5pm

Tired of fluorescent beams? Is it time for a breath of fresh air? Come and enjoy laptopping, meeting, brainstorming or writing.

Living in the city, we spend less and less time in nature, while nature stimulates our creativity and health. Even when it rains we can sit comfortably dry under the canopy. We provide the basic ingredients for a productive working day: wifi, electricity and water. Bring coffee or tea in your thermos cup.

GARDEN | every Friday

Parallel welcomes you every Friday to settle down in the idyllic Garden. The recipe is simple: free entrance to this hidden treasure with local DJs spinning the finest deep house, Amapiano & eclectic electronic music, plus plenty of food and drink to kick off the weekend.

Garden Terrace | Sat & Sun from 12h

From 12:00 you can already go for a cup of coffee, soda or a beer in the greenery. But not only the bar will be open then, also our newest addition to the Garden; the taco cart, with all kinds of delicious snacks, will open then.

At the bar you can get fresh coffee, cappuccino or tea, but also a bottle of special beer or a glass of wine. Of course, everything tastes even better with a snack next to it so you can get some goodies in the taco cart. Here we have different tacos; like a vegan "Sin Carne" or with Jerk Chicken, but also vegan croquettes, cheese rolls or other snacks are plenty.

Sunday Sounds & Sprout Sessions | free live music every Sunday

From May through August, there will again be free live music every Sunday in the idyllic Garden under the old sycamore tree. Also this year, our housemate Excelsior Recordings fills the program with their finest artists for Sunday Sounds.

The program includes performances by Vic Willems, Meis, CHELS, Oliver Pesch, Noor, Nagasaki Swim, Future Husband and many more. Admission free, donations welcome.

Every week, Sunday Sounds is followed by the Sprout Sessions. Here the stage is given to an emerging artist from the North Holland region. Perfect for music lovers who want to discover new music and support young talent.

Repair Café | Sunday

The Repair Café team is regularly at your service. Bring your broken clothes or stuff and they will repair it for free (or on donation) for you.
