Sun, 30 Aug 2026 · 14:00
Koning Albertpark, Antwerp
Free
In the mood for an unforgettable afternoon full of music and summery conviviality? Then the Albertpark is the place to be!
Enjoy free concerts at the kiosk, dance animation, yoga, and plenty of delicious things on Sunday, August 30.
We start the afternoon very relaxed with a session of yoga in the park. Roll out your mat, breathe in deeply, and come completely to yourself in the middle of the greenery. Perfect to recharge for the rest of the day! After that, the party really breaks loose.
Fela Kuti Celebration Band provides an irresistible tribute to Fela Kuti, the legendary afrobeat pioneer. Dit Antwerpse collective of top musicians brings a wonderfully danceable show. Expect funky horn sections, tight rhythms, and an energetic, unstoppable groove. The characteristic repetitive sound ensures musical ecstasy every time. A crazy trip where the spirit of Fela Kuti is alive and kicking.
The Whodads are made from the best Fender metal, Tijuana copper, and worn-out Hammond wood. They bring their favorite instrumentals from the time when cars had tail fins. Deze Antwerpse legends take you on an intoxicating journey with their intergalactic surf jazz, swinging mambo, and film music that you rarely get to hear live. Including, among others, Steven Janssens, Filip Wauters, Niels Verheest, and Roel Jacobs.
