MEROL
Once again this June, the atmospheric courtyard of the Burgerweeshuis will serve as the backdrop for a versatile series of garden concerts that are sure to spark. The unique setting creates a special vibe every single time.
MEROL
MEROL burst onto the pop scene in 2018 with "Lekker Met De Meiden" and hasn't stopped since. With her bold, idiosyncratic Dutch-language electropop, she dissects the zeitgeist—sex, feminism, and everything in between—wrapped in irresistible synthpop. Her shows are energetic, shameless, and made for singing along, featuring hits like "Hou Je Bek" and "Bef Me." She has torn up stages at major festivals like Lowlands, Pukkelpop, and Rock Werchter, building a rock-solid fanbase.
Her album 'Naar de Haaien & Weer Terug' was met with rave reviews, and in 2025, a dream came true with her own musical film, Diep in de Nacht. It's no wonder OOR magazine dubbed her “the Lady Gaga of the Low Countries.”
MEROL has always been authentic and outspoken, but she takes it a step further on her new album, 'Leve de Feeks'. On her punkiest record to date, she sings about gender roles, motherhood, womanhood, shame, and liberation. The result: explosive electropop with a raw punk attitude.
support: Alice Olsthoorn
Emerging from internet and queer rave culture, Alice has always loved pushing boundaries with humor and extravagance. She effortlessly blends her love for hyperpop with club music, creating a futuristic world on stage. With her humorous yet poignant lyrics and her status as a queer icon, she can easily be called the hyperpop princess of the Netherlands. She has previously blown away audiences at Milkshake, the Amsterdam Pride mainstage, as a support act for Pabllo Vittar, and more.
