Dutch Modular Fest 2025

WORM is delighted to welcome Dutch Modular Fest to Rotterdam! This hugely successful and forward-looking festival normally takes place in Utrecht. This will be a day full of surprises, showcasing the incredibly and enlightening world of modular synths!

Music
DMF have created a wide-ranging music programme to enjoy. Every artist is carefully selected and presents a certain genre, or aspect of modular synth music. And we are delighted to present: Julian Edwardes, Skander Jaïbi & Ines Kooli, Chebedahja, Maj Rachel, Cinematic Laboratory, and, returning to WORM, Animistic Beliefs. You can watch the gigs in WORM’s main concert space.

Talks
Two talks are programmed, before the gigs in WORM’s main concert space. Topics and speakers TBC

Makers Market
Discover the heart of Dutch Modular Fest at the Makers Market. Meet passionate creators, explore unique gear, get hands-on demos, and dive into expert tips. Whether you’re a curious beginner or a seasoned pro, this is the place to connect, learn, and shop straight from the source. There will be around 30 maker booths, so plenty of kit, and things, to discover! The Makers market will be in WORM’s theatre space, UBIK (Boomgaardsstraat 69).

DIY Workshops
Join the DIY solder workshops at Dutch Modular Fest. Learn to build your own gear, guided by friendly experts. No experience needed, just curiosity and a steady pair of hands. So walk in and grab a soldering iron and leave with a handmade module and new skills under your belt. It’s fun, hands-on and beginner-friendly! The workshops are organised by Veerle from Acid Solder Club Utrecht. The DIY workshops will be held in WORM’s Pirate Bay space (Boomgaardsstraat 71).
