Floating Pasar

Floating Pasar is a cultural festival for the whole family, celebrating the culture of the Indonesian diaspora. During this special weekend, music, dance, art, stories, heritage, and delicious food come together in a vibrant atmosphere by the water. Visitors enjoy live performances by well-known artists and new talent, cultural workshops, historical walks, inspiring conversations, and a lively market full of entrepreneurs, makers, and organizations. At the food court, you can sample the rich flavors of Indonesian, Indo-Dutch, and Moluccan cuisine, while a varied program on various stages ensures a day full of encounters, experiences, and entertainment. Floating Pasar brings generations together and shows how traditions, stories, and cultural identity are passed down and renewed. The festival offers space for recognition, discovery, and connection, for people with roots in Indonesia and for everyone curious about this rich culture. With its unique combination of culture, heritage, culinary delights, and entertainment, Floating Pasar has grown into one of Rotterdam's most special free festivals: a place where past and future meet, and new encounters are formed.
