Rode Hond
An infectious arts festival for families
>>> Thu 5 - Sun 8 Nov 2026 <<<
This year, we’re blowing out twenty candles and gearing up for a celebratory edition.
As in previous years, numerous cultural partners across Leuven are joining forces to present a highly diverse programme in an equally wide range of venues. Play a live game projected onto the façade of the Schouwburg, or lose yourself in the soft takeover by Sien Van Acker: step into a jungle of soft installations, candyfloss-pink materials, inflatable shapes, and tactile textures.
At the Minnepoort, you’ll once again find the Puppy Hub: a delightful space to relax and play for the very youngest visitors and their grown-up companions. On Wednesday evening, we’ll kick off the festival with a spectacular birthday party in the most beautiful foyer in the country.
Discover some of the highlights for which tickets are already on sale.
The full programme will be announced on Wednesday 16 September at www.rodehond.be.
Ticket sales will start that day at 2 pm.
