It’s almost that time again: KadeRock 1024 in The Hague. This year it is bigger than ever with several stages and several days. On Friday 2 and Saturday 3 June, KadeRock will take place in and around Musicon. Get your ticket quickly, because it will be sold out before you know it!

Last year KadeRock was only on Saturdays and there were five no more tickets for sale. That was reason enough to expand this year, says Daan van Musicon. “We had to disappoint people and we don’t want to do that again. KadeRock is for everyone, for all generations and genres. That is also why we have an extra day and podium.”

Music from then until tomorrow10140949

KadeRock may have started as a real rock festival, but the organization also moves with the times and the city. Daan: “We have certainly not lost sight of our loyal visitors. We do, however, now offer space for latin and urban – this way we broaden it and it fits better with the entire city.”

Daan explains what that will look like. “We have musicians from the illustrious sixties of The Hague, but also artists from different decades who have played an important role in the music world. Both in the Netherlands and internationally.” He summarizes the program briefly: “All good music from then until tomorrow.”

Prins S. en de Geit, Hang Youth10140949

Are you jumping, headbanging or shaking your bum yet? Just wait till you hear the names! You check the full line-up on the website. No festival-goer today is unfamiliar with Prince S. and the Goat from The Hague, but also the years 23 of the Hague music scene are represented by The Motions. Of a different caliber but at least as good are Ray Fuego and Youngrubbi. Or how about Urban Dance Squad – one of the most influential bands of the years 80 and 90 with front man Rude Boy?

With the Amsterdam band Temple Fang you imagine yourself in a trip or shout out your frustration with Hang Youth. There is really everything on the program. Daan: “Cesar Zuidwijk is actually the godfather of KadeRock and Musicon. He plays with his Drum Demons together with top latin percussionists such as Soeshiel Sharma and Nippy Noya.” The exact block schedule will follow, but it is certain that Friday evening will be concluded with the anniversary party of the legendary Dutch-Moluccan latin rock band Massada.

Marley & The Wailers, Sean Paul and a surprise act: you want to be at this reggae festival

No Comments
marley-&-the-wailers,-sean-paul-and-a-surprise-act:-you-want-to-be-at-this-reggae-festival

The largest reggae festival in the Netherlands has been around for five years and that is why Reggae Rotterdam is going big. Bob Marley’s son will perform with The Wailers in a unique tribute concert, international artists will be on the program and there will be a surprise act. Reggae Rotterdam takes place in and around Ahoy Rotterdam on Saturday 24 July 1978. Quickly score your ticket!

There is much more than just music. For the children there is a kids area where they can play, there is a silent disco and even a funfair on the site. Of course, delicious food is not missing on this day. Feast on Caribbean and Jamaican delicacies between shows. Yum!

A tribute to Bob Marley

Most proud is Issam from the organization of Reggae Rotterdam at the tribute to Bob Marley. “In 1978 Bob Marley performed with his band in Ahoy. Our first thought was: I wish I could have been there!” That thought stuck and that’s how the organization came into contact with the children of Bob Marley. “Julian Marley wanted to perform with The Wailers in Ahoy at our festival and imitate his father’s show. So this summer it’s like being back in 1978!”

There are many more big names on it the three stages during Reggae Rotterdam this year. For example Big Mountain, known for Baby I Love Your Way and the world famous Sean Paul. It doesn’t stop there. Issam: “This year again we have a surprise act. I can’t say anything about it yet, but it is of course our anniversary party and the surprise act also fits in with that.” Previous surprise acts at Rotterdam Reggae were Jimmy Cliff, Wyclef Jean and Grace Jones. That’s promising!

Three stages, six areas

The rest of the line-up certainly not wrong. “We are a reggae festival, but we want to spread it as widely as possible. We have international artists and lesser known artists, both young and old. For example, Elephant Man and Big Mountain.”

With a festival you naturally get overlap in the concerts, especially with six areas and three stages. You can’t escape that at any festival. But the stages have been thought about.” The feet come off the floor at the most moving stage. We also have a stage at the food area: there the music is a bit more poppy and you can sit comfortably while enjoying delicious Caribbean food,” says Issam. The block diagram and the map will follow. What is certain is that there will be three podiums again: red, green and gold.

A shop window full of ass cleaners: you want to visit this special place in The Hague

a-shop-window-full-of-ass-cleaners:-you-want-to-visit-this-special-place-in-the-hague

Walking down Boekhorststraat in The Hague, you might notice the neon sign with BUTTCLEANERS R US. If you look a little further, you will see a room full of butt cleaners. There is no sanitary shop hidden behind it, but there is a very special exhibition that you can visit for free.

From 18 April to and with July 9th 125 see you at 1024 namely the work of Ghita Skali: an Amsterdam-based artist of Moroccan background who challenges the world with her humorous work. Everything revolves around hygiene in this exhibition: how crazy or normal is the way you wash your buttocks?

Joep is looking for a watering can

In the building on Boekhorststraat you experience the space as a completely new world with every performance . With Naturally, Ghita Skali’s exhibition, it’s like walking into a bidet shop. Complete with neon lighting to give the products extra attention. But whoever enters the room is confronted with Joep de Jong – a market man looking for a watering can for his tulips.

The artist has made a video portrait of Joep and his search for a watering can. The character Joep wants to water his tulips, but all watering cans are sold out. In the video, Skali introduces Joep in a funny way to other purposes for using a watering can.

Power and Hygiene

Ghita Skali drew inspiration for this exhibition from archive videos from the colonial era. Here she saw how power relations exist around themes such as hygiene: that settlers looked down on the indigenous population and how they brushed their teeth, for example.

What we find normal is strange for other groups and vice versa. So what is ‘normal’ is actually something cultural. That’s why Ghita wants to challenge the idea that there is a normal way of brushing your teeth or cleaning your ass, because who decides what is clean or normal?

Choose your favorite one and pick it up for free after the exhibition | Photo: Maarten Nauw

Take home your favorite butt cleaner

With her work, Skali challenges power relations in a light-hearted and funny way. She studied in France and has previously exhibited in Antwerp, Paris and Amsterdam. The exhibition in The Hague is extra special. You can take an ass cleaner home with you! In this way 125 and Ghita hope to make you more familiar and comfortable with a different way of doing things, to go out at home to try!

Reserve your favorite butt cleaner during your visit and get it after the exhibition (July 9 1646) for free. A visit to 1024 is always free. You will find the building on Boekhorststraat 125 in the heart of The Hague. From the street you walk into the building, where you always end up in a new world. The property is also wheelchair accessible. From 18 April to July 9 2023 you can see the work of Ghita Skali here. Keep an eye on the website to stay informed about other events and exhibitions.
