Boothstock Festival 2016<\/a> is the first event. Preparations for the event are in progress as we speak. It will also be Rotterdam\u2019s largest festival this summer. Over 7,000 visitors are expected; visitors who will no doubt dance new life into the Kralingse Bos <\/strong>park area. The Boothstock event will take place for the fifth time on Saturday<\/strong>, 11 June<\/strong>.\u00a0A ticket costs 37.50 euros<\/strong>. It\u2019s a ticket to great food, a lot of good music and a great time in general. The music will range from techno and tech house to UK garage and a touch of hip hop.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re ready for more after Boothstock, you can simply attend the official afterparty\u00a0<\/a>in\u00a0The Boathouse Rotterdam\u00a0<\/strong>(a glass pavilion that provides a splendid view of the Kralingen lake) for a mere 15 euros<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

While somewhat smaller in scale, the Modular Festival 2016\u00a0<\/a>will be just as much fun. The line-up is world class. For\u00a029.50 euros<\/strong>,\u00a0fans of techno and house will be able to enjoy themselves to the max in Park Maasboulevard<\/strong>\u00a0on 18 June<\/strong>. With a phenomenal view of the Maas, visitors will be treated to the bangers of Kobosil, Palmbomen II, ROD <\/em>and, a personal favourite,\u00a0\u00c2me.<\/em><\/p>\n

An afterparty<\/a> at which some of the performers will be present will take place in\u00a0Bar<\/strong>. Admission costs only 5 euros<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
