Zum allerersten Mal findet dieses Jahr das O.K. Festival statt, welches sich ganz und gar den verborgenen Geheimnissen und unwiderstehlichem Charme von Independent Magazinen widmet. Neben zahlreichen Vorträgen erwarten den Besucher Workshops und über 100 Magazine.

Der Eintritt in den Ausstellungsbereich ist kostenfrei. Wer an den Vorträgen teilnehmen möchte, muss sich anmelden und sich ein Konferenzticket kaufen, was meiner Meinung nach aber wirklich günstig angeboten wird:

Day pass/Weekend pass
You will need a day pass if you want to take part in the programme. These passes give you access to the entire programme and the party. It is possible to buy the passes on location at the entrance. Please register in due time for programme events as we are expecting quite a turnout.

Daycards incl. Lunch | €35,- standard / €25,- student*
Weekendcards incl. Lunch | €65,- standard / €45,- student*

Für die Workshops muss man sich gesondert anmelden.

O.K. Festival is the first event in the Netherlands that offers a survey of independent magazines from all over the world. Under the title 'Welcome Magazines' O.K. Festival presents the energy and the visual explosion of strange, beautiful and original magazines.

One by one they present an answer to the uniformity of the mass media. The printed media are falling victim to increasingly strict formats. Sales figures reign. In the gaping hole they leave behind the independent magazine manifests itself. Everything that is excluded by the mainstream media finds its place here. In this sense, the independent magazine offers a sanctuary to designers, illustrators and writers. It is at times defiant and headstrong, but always brimming with energy and playfulness. Readers from across the world are increasingly drawn to its versatility, originality and creativity. O.K. Festival offers an insight into the full spectrum of independent magazines through various activities.
