ImpressFest is the annual showcase festival for art, theatre, media and music in Groningen. Since 2011, we have been introducing you to the young talent from the city, the best-of of our students and the products that are developed during the year at our courses. ImpressFest presents all this talent under one name and gives free rein for five days to young talent eager to conquer the world of art and culture.
All directions
Originally, the festival was created as a stage for graduating students to present their final products.
All disciplines contribute to the programming and organization of the festival.
The technology, light and sound are provided by the stage & event technology course. The organization is in the hands of students of event organization. Musicians, artists, filmmakers present selected work from location performance to singer-songwriter and from short film to 3D exhibition.
Multimedia students design the website, application and PR and promo material as well as the decoration of the festival.
Big production
Every year a major performance is also made by talented makers from the North. This year “There's no business…” made by Koos Kregel (Hairspray) and “Fragments from a Human Garden” directed by Taco van Dijk (including De Jongens)
