Placemaking Week

Tickets now available for pre-sale and at the door. Cost: €10 (including boiling hot soup).

Boiling makes crowdfunding simpler, faster, and more fun than ever.  At this Boiling Pitch Night four impatient creative city makers present their innovative ideas for Amsterdam. You pay €10—a 100% donation to the winning idea—and this gives you entrance to the event, a nice boiling hot soup, and most importantly voting rights. All visitors get to vote on which idea is best and together you decide who wins and get’s to execute their idea quickly.
