Night Parliament and Citizen Orphanage present: The System. Last August was the first edition of a festival that pays tribute to rave and sound system culture. The next, third edition will take place on August 8, 2026.
The edge of the city. Between the noise of the highway and the Schipbeek, a new sound reaches your ears. At first softly, but then louder and louder. Light flashes over long forgotten stones. Fragments of fog float between trees, mysterious sounds lure you further and further off the beaten path... Until you are part of The System. After eight years of construction, with two internships and a completely new location, we wrote our love letter to rave and sound system culture together!
