Niettemin zullen er ook mondneusmaskers (FPP2) bij de ingang beschikbaar zijn. Niet iedereen kan er een dragen, dus het dragen ervan is geen verplichting.

📅 14th March 10pm-3am

📍 De Sering, Rhoneweg 6, 1043 AH Amsterdam

🎫 Tickets from 10 euros!

The Dutch border police forcibly deports thousands of people every year, often using violence and body restraints. At MiGreat, we fight back against deportations. With direct action, protests and campaigns. Every success fills us with joy; every loss breaks our hearts. But we’re not giving up.

That’s why we’re hosting our first ever DANCE AGAINST DEPORTATIONS — a fundraising party to fuel our fight, spread awareness, and channel our love and rage into one powerful night of dancing. 💃🏾🪩✨

Join us. Donate. Dance. Together, we can resist injustice and build a world rooted in care and solidarity. Let’s turn resistance into rhythm 🖤

[2025-03-15] Reclaim the Seeds 2025 @ Fruittuin van West, Amsterdam

Reclaim the Seeds 2025

We're excited about the upcoming edition of Reclaim the Seeds Amsterdam this March! At its heart, we are a seed fair where seeds are exchanged freely, breaking the chains of corporate control over our food. Beyond that, we hope to strengthen our movement, share knowledge, and reclaim our collective power through workshops, talks, and shared discussions. Seed sovereignty is the foundation for preserving resilient vegetable varieties by enabling more growers to save their own seeds and reducing our dependence on large multinationals.

Yet, as organizers of Reclaim the Seeds Amsterdam, we had a strange feeling when we picked up the thread last fall; genocide and various wars are taking place. Shouldn't we use our time and energy to try to do something about it?

That's why we chose to show color as Reclaim the Seeds Amsterdam. We want nothing to do with fascist regimes and genocide. We stand with Palestine, Lebanon, Sudan, Congo, and Ukrainians resisting Putin, and we oppose the xenophobic far- right government in the Netherlands. We believe that seed sovereignty and ecological justice cannot be separated from colonialism and capitalism. The oppression of land and people are two sides of the same coin.

What does this mean in practice for the ‘Reclaim the Seeds' festival? The more insecure society becomes, the more important it is to have robust food production close to home. And the more crucial it becomes to come together as a community, collectively practice alternatives to industrial agriculture and build our movement. This is essential because it allows communities to meet their basic needs autonomously, without relying on distant, vulnerable supply chains.

We invite all participants and visitors to come together and brainstorm how we can build a movement that disrupts oppressive systems and creates sustainable, social, and solidarity-based alternatives, starting with seeds. We are certainly ambitious, but the fight against European legislation and agro-multinationals always has been.

Our email inbox is open.

We hope to see you at Reclaim the Seeds Amsterdam!
