Foundations

Dutch and international foundations and associations make Holland Festival a serious player on the world stage. Thanks to long-lasting collaborations, the festival can present groundbreaking performing arts to a large and wide audience.

Foundations and associations among others, therefore, make Holland Festival possible.

In this way the festival can:
• achieve its artistic and public ambitions,
• present new, large-scale work by internationally recognised creators,
• invest in artistic developments,
• support Dutch mid-career artists in their international ambitions,
• create connections in Amsterdam,
• have a larger audience come into contact with the festival and better anticipate the
   personal needs of the visitors, and
• connect with an inquisitive audience, both live and digitally through a combination of
   online and offline context programmes .

 

These foundations will support the Holland Festival in 2025: 

Production Partner Ammodo 
Ammodo will be the production partner of Holland Festival until 2026 and will annually support international co-productions and the festival's own initiatives. This allows Holland Festival to remain in the front. Spearheads of the cooperation are: introducing new makers to the Dutch audience, giving composition commissions and supporting large co-productions with international partners. The supported productions are presented annually under the banner Ammodo x Holland Festival


Festival Partner Fonds21 
Fonds21 will be a Festival Partner of the Holland Festival in 2025. Fonds21 is an enterprising and committed fund that supports high-quality projects that manage to reach a broad, appropriate or new audience.  


Presentation Partner Hartwig Art Foundation 
Hartwig Art Foundation works substantively with local and international organizations, initiatives, makers and thinkers to realize artistic projects and increase access to art for a broader audience. As such, Hartwig Art Foundation and the Holland Festival have a long-standing collaboration, which in recent years resulted in Moby Dick (2022), The worm, Epitaph and Indra's Net (2023) and Carmen (2024).
