EINDHOVEN HOST CITY
DE OPENING 2026
Eindhoven is the second city to have the honour of hosting DE OPENING. During the final weekend of August 2026 (28–30 August), Eindhoven will set the stage for a vibrant start to the national cultural season.
The foundation behind DE OPENING (Stichting de Uitmarkt) is delighted that Eindhoven will be taking over the baton from Apeldoorn.
PROGRAMME
We’re opening our doors! During De Opening, you can get a first look at the newly renovated TAC. Drop by the open studios, visit the photography exhibition by Marcel de Buck and Urša Prek, enjoy a drink accompanied by the DJ’s upbeat tunes, and get a sneak peek of our restaurant. It won’t officially open until October, but for this special occasion, the kitchen will already be serving a selection of bites.
Over the coming season, TAC will gradually open more and more of its doors. The programme includes exhibitions by Richard van Kruysdijk and Nikolai Gillissen, our participation in Dutch Design Week and GLOW, and, as the grand finale, our big opening weekend in April 2027, when TAC will fully open its doors.
