WHERE: Utrecht, The Netherlands
WHEN: from 06th to 09th November 2025
Le Guess Who is not a simple Festival but a real form of sound experimentation.
An event that this year celebrates its 18th edition, ready, once again, to attract visitors with a rich program.
Over 150 shows on the bill, with music as a great protagonist. It ranges from jazz, folk, ambient, drone, avant-garde, to modern compositions, up to contemporary pop and rock sounds. And many related events: film, visual art, photography.
Le Guess Who, is an exciting journey towards research and discovery. A wide-ranging event among the most alternative and evocative places: theaters, galleries and even churches.
An unmissable Festival that, despite its young age, did not take long to carve out the attention of the media.
“The Independent” called it a truly eclectic experience. For “The Line Of Best Fit”, this is the most diverse, open and inspiring festival. According to “The Quietus”, we need events like Le Guess Who?, To remind us that a better world is possible.
