About
What You See Festival 19-23 November 2025, Utrecht. International arts festival with different perspectives on gender and identity.
What You See is an annual multidisciplinary and international arts festival about gender and identity. Positive, activist and connecting. What You See Festival 2026 will take place from 18 to 22 November in Utrecht.
What You See is an arts festival about gender and identity. Here you can see work by artists that can hardly be seen in the Netherlands, uniquely composed programs, unexpected pop-up performances, free exhibitions and more. But What You See Festival is above all an invitation to come together, to meet others, to examine your own assumptions and prejudices. Together with artists and the public, we create a joint quest for a more inclusive society.
