March & April
What’s happening? THINGS TO DO & PLACES TO GO
A GOOD LAUGH
Utrecht International Comedy Festival
The American culture website Vulture added the Utrecht comedy fest to its list of nine fantastic comedy festivals. For a good reason: the Utrecht International Comedy Festival is the largest stand-up comedy festival in the Benelux. Seven rooms on the top floor of TivoliVredenburg will provide a stage for over sixty British, American, Canadian, Belgian and Dutch performers. And there’s even more: the UICF is preceded by a Utrecht Comedy Week, which includes a show by the ‘anarchist cook’ George Egg and Raul Kohli’s pick of the Edinburgh Fringe. > 6 and 7 March, TivoliVredenburg utrechtinternationalcomedyfestival.nl

Every first Thursday of the month, jazz fans are treated to a club concert in the private lounge of the De Utrechter bar. Utrechter Jazz Club evenings (a partnership between De Utrechter, UJazz and saxophonist Kika Sprangers) provides a podium for jazz scene musicians who are keen to experiment, innovate and test the boundaries of jazz music. > every first Thursday of the month, De Utrechter (Vredenburg 40) deutrechter.nl/clubjazz
