The Festival will be held in the "Burgerzaal", Lange Hofstraat 4 in the town of Zutphen, in the eastern part of the Netherlands, from April 16th in the evening to Sunday April 18th in the afternoon. There is a total of six sessions: four concerts and four lectures, grouped in two sessions of two lectures each. See the festival programme for details. The procedure for dealing with tickets can be found here.
The burgerzaal was the place where meat was certified during the Middel Ages. Click here for details (in Dutch). In modern times, the Burgerzaal is only used for events that benefit the citizens of the city - we are very fortunate that the Council allowed its use for the Festival
