The Municipality of Utrecht warmly invites you to celebrate the 904th birthday of our city together with us.
Sign up for the dinner on the square in front of our City Hall (Stadhuisplein), where various Utrecht communities will come together to meet one another and share a meal. Enjoy a vegetarian and halal dinner provided by, among others, Za’atar, The Colour Kitchen and Napata, alongside musical performances.
Before the dinner, Marijke Huisman, Maurice van Lieshout and Evert van der Veen will present the lecture Utrechtenaren: Chapters from Utrecht’s Queer History in the Council Chamber of Utrecht City Hall.
During the lecture, we will guide you through Utrecht’s rich queer history. Through remarkable stories of forgotten lives and surprising insights into sexuality and gender, we will show how queer people have been part of the city for centuries.
