Do-it-yourself Festival & Sustainable Home Market

On 8 November 2026, from 12:00 to 16:00, the MAAK HET ZELF festival will take place at De Hallen Passage & Galerie Beeldend Gesproken, Hannie Dankbaarpassage 23, Amsterdam. The festival is a cheerful event where you can take part in free workshops to learn how to make your own sustainable products, such as soft toys from old clothes and sustainable washing powder. There’s something for everyone, whatever your age. There’s also a Sustainable Home Market where, in a relaxed setting, you can talk to various organisations about sustainable living, insulation, energy saving, grants and more. The festival is organised by Combiwel Bellamybuurt, Stichting Motherhood and Stichting ToekomsthuisWG, and is made possible by volunteers and the City of Amsterdam.
