Program We Make The City weekender @ Circl:

Friday: ROEF Festival @Cirl
During Amsterdam’s highest festival Circl brings fingerlicking vega food and especially danceable beats of DGTL’s finest. With artists like The Mauskovic Dance Band, Awanto 3 and Tim Hoeben, the roof will be off the greenest rooftop in the Zuidas. Drink a tasty Gin made from local leftovers or get a rain beer at the premiere: the Rainbar. Don’t forget your raincoat, because it could be raining beer…https://circl.nl/programma/roef-2018-het-rooftopfestival
