Enjoy summer vibes, during the sixth edition of the HeartBeat Festival! On 6 September, the campus will transform into a festival, with food trucks, lounge areas, bars and most importantly: good music.
Over the past years, the HeartBeat Festival has become the festive opening of the academic year of our university. For students and staff members, the Erasmus Plaza is transformed into a festival area. After five successful editions, this year's theme is 'Enjoy Summer Vibes'! At 16.30 hours, the festival starts and you can find food trucks, lounge areas, bars and good music at the Plaza.
Besides dancing to good music, there are many other things to do. Visit the Feesttantes (Party Aunts) for a festival look, take your picture with Erasmus or in the Fancybooth and sing your heart out in the Karaoke Caravan. If you want to kick back, get on the Silent Swing and relax.
Food trucks
When you say 'festival', you say 'good food', right? Have a look at the food trucks that you can visit at the HeartBeat Festival.
