HET FESTIVAL VOL. 2 lands in the heart of NAR, Netherlands, on August 30th, 2025, inviting dancers and selectors alike into a sonic realm shaped by the cutting edge of techno and deeply rooted house culture. Building on last year’s momentum, this edition assembles a lineup that speaks to restless diggers and late-night enthusiasts. Budino sets the tone with her signature blend of hypnotic rhythms and leftfield selections, seamlessly weaving together sounds that span eras and geographies.

Amsterdam’s own Eileen (NL) and Wes (NL) bring the local flavor to the decks, each known for deep crates and magnetic energy that’s helped shape the Dutch underground. Frinda di Lanco crafts immersive journeys with a knack for tension and release, while Kamma & Masalo continue to push genre boundaries with a raw, percussive groove derived from their sprawling influences. Kennedy and Leroy Rey inject soulful sensibilities, layering the night with infectious funk and broken beats, while O'Riordan (NL) draws from eclectic and dubby spheres for a set that challenges expectations and rewards curiosity.

Sound Metaphors DJs cap off the experience, referencing Berlin nightlife with unpredictable, vinyl-driven selections that celebrate the outer fringes of electronic music. Expect immersive production, attention to detail, and an unpretentious dancefloor that values discovery as much as devotion. HET FESTIVAL VOL. 2 is not just another date—it’s a convergence of communities, sounds, and moments you won’t find anywhere else.
