VIBES

The happiness that people experience at Surfana Festival is simply based on a combination of surf and sport activities on the one hand, and a healthy lifestyle around nature on the other. Located near the beach, in the beautiful dunes of the National Park Zuid-Kennemerland, our festival provides the space for people to experience the Surfana lifestyle, in the company of like-minded people!

MUSIC

There are many aspects that make Surfana Festival such a special event, but the music is what brings it all together. From sunrise to sunset (and beyond)  you’ll be able to hear a selection of artists and bands – handpicked from around the globe – that resonate with the Surfana vibe. Indeed, many musicians say Surfana is one of the most unique festivals they have ever played at and we can’t disagree! We’ve seen the likes of Sticky Fingers, Ocean Alley, Sons Of The East and Kim Churchill perform at our intimate but impactful festival, and this being our 9th edition, why would it be any different? In fact, in 2023 we are going all out in our music offerings so get pumped for what lies ahead because this year we aim to impress!

CLINICS

It’s our philosophy to live a life full of joy– and to share our lifestyle with others so every year our team pours our collective heart and soul into putting together the best vibes for our festival, based on nature, freedom, sports, good music, sustainability and lots of clinics and workshops.

FOOD

This year’s food and drink offerings will be provided by several caterers who bring passion and love to everything they make. Diversity and sustainability are central to all aspect of our festival so when it comes to nourishing all our visitors, the emphasis will be on taste, sustainable food sources and reusable cutlery. In 2023, all the food on offer will be either vegetarian or vegan and, knowing what our caterers can produce, we are drooling already. Be reassured: from early morning wake ups with a cup of coffee and a breakfast till late at night gluttony, we’ve got you covered. A food lineup to get your taste buds tingling!

SUSTAINABILITY

Surfana Festival takes it to the next level when it comes to sustainability. This applies to the food that will be on offer but stretches across all aspects of the festival. In 2023 we are aiming to go zero waste and want to power the festival with nothing but green energy and the good vibes emanating from our amazing visitors. We work with small and big initiatives to make this change happen and will share details of this over the coming months.

    - Which campervans can I bring to the festival with a van life ticket?

    There is no maximum size or any further restrictions about the campervan you can bring to the festival. However, you cannot bring a trailer. This means no caravans because you have to deal with the car as well, which is really space inefficient. It does not matter how many people sleep in a van - everybody needs a full weekend ticket though. Some camping spots have electricity, this has to be shared with the other people on the same spot. This cannot be reserved beforehand.

    - How are my camping spots booked for the festival?

    Unless you have booked a specific camping option with Camping De Lakens the camping spots are served on a first come first serve basis. There are no pre reservations made.

    - Do I need tickets for my children?

    Children between the age of 6 to 17 require a ticket for children. Children younger than 6 do not need a ticket - all children must be accompanied by an adult.

    - Campervan tickets
