Do you enjoy live music from all over the world? Do you think refugees deserve decent treatment? Of course you do! Come to the smashing fund-raising concert and open-mic in the ´Refugee House´ of The Hague. This squatted church houses about 30 refugees whom otherwise would be sleeping on the street.

The Dutch government believes the refugees should go back. But their lives are threatened in their war torn countries (like Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia). They have no choice but to stay in the Netherlands. Nonetheless, the Dutch government considers their stay here illegal and prohibits them from working or renting a home. They even risk 18 months of detention if caught on the street with no charge other than being unable to go back home.

The ´Refugee House´ is run by volunteers and depends on donations. The concert at the church will bring together a host of great musicians from Iraq, Ireland, Holland, Indonesia and more. For the musicians, poets and story-tellers amongst you, there will be an open mike following the concert.

Bring your talent and jam with us!

Drinks and tasty food will be waiting for all visitors.

Time: Doors and bar open at 7pm. Concert starts at 8pm.

Entrance: Free, donations highly appreciated
