Exhibiting at Ketelhuisplein
Ketelhuisplein is ideally suited for interactive projects. Think of do-touch installations, but also projects that engage the visitor in conversation. This outdoor location suits projects that can withstand the weather and/or are provided with a good roof.
Would you like to exhibit at the Ketelhuisplein? Please specify "Ketelhuisplein" in the comments field under the "Location" section of the application form.
However, this does not guarantee that this spot will be allocated to you:
If your project is suitable for the Ketelhuisplein, the programme team will contact you.
If your project is not suitable for this location, you will also receive a notification so that you can approach another location.
Please note: in order for a project to be included in the permit application, your participation on the Ketelhuisplein must be approved by 3 June at the latest. Participation on the Ketelhuisplein is no longer possible after the permit application has been submitted.
Food & Drinks
You will not only find special projects on and around the square. There is also The Bar, plus a food area with various food trucks ranging from environmentally friendly fries, delicious Vietnamese or Indonesian bites to poffertjes and vegan dishes made from food surplus. The Bar is open all day, and starting from 17:00 there are drinks and DJs to finish the day on a high note.
Important information
- Permits for (projects on) Ketelhuisplein go through DDW. You do not need to apply for these yourself. However, it is essential that we receive all project information on time. Would you like to present your project at this location? Then submit your application no later than 16 May 2024.
- If your project is suitable, a programme manager will contact you to agree on matters such as required square metres, plot costs (see below) and further information. Once this has been settled, the permit process will start.
- Due to the early deadline for the permit application, we need substantive and technical information from all projects at this location before the 1st of July. Depending on the project, this might include:
- explanation project & image
- required m2
- floor plan/technical drawing of top and side views with exact dimensions
- material use
- indication of doors and emergency exits
- Provision of a construction book (e.g. for a glass greenhouse or tent)
- structural calculations/wind calculations
- The permit application is submitted by DDW and assessed by the municipality of Eindhoven. In some cases, additional information may be required based on the request. Please make sure you are available at the end of July to provide it. Once the municipality has issued the official permit, participation can take place at Ketelhuisplein.
Good to know
- Your participation may involve a structure and/or (design) object/construction. Bear in mind that in some cases construction and wind calculations must be made for the permit application. You are responsible for having these calculations made; please take into account additional costs. The municipality's structural inspection is carried out using the COBC guideline.
- If your project is not resistant to rain, carefully consider what kind of covering you will use. This also needs to be included in the permit application and should match the aesthetic of the square.
- The placement of projects and the layout of the square is determined by the Ketelhuisplein team, in collaboration with the DDW programme team. This is not up for debate. Do you have urgent questions? Contact the programme team.
- Facility supplies must be requested in August, such as extra electricity, internet, water point, waste disposal. You will find the costs further down this page. You will be sent a form to request these facilities.
- Construction will take place in the week of 14 October, dismantling will take place on Sunday 27 and Monday 28 October.
- Please note that participants are responsible themselves for transport and logistics, including machines/equipment needed for the construction/dismantling.
- A representative of your project should be present at the Ketelhuisplein at all times during the opening hours of the event.
