ParkCity Live

ParkCity Live is Heerlen’s signature open-air music and culture festival, drawing thousands of visitors each summer to the heart of the Parkstad region. Held over two consecutive days, the festival transforms a city park into a vibrant stage for both established pop acts and emerging talent, with a program that spans music, art, and creative performances. Recent editions have featured well-known Dutch artists such as Suzan & Freek and Douwe Bob, alongside a diverse lineup of bands and performers from across the country and neighboring regions.

The festival is known for its lively, welcoming atmosphere and its appeal to all ages. Families, groups of friends, and music lovers from South Limburg, Aachen, and Belgian Limburg come together to enjoy the eclectic mix of genres and the festival’s signature surprise elements. Artistic installations, food trucks, and interactive activities add to the experience, making ParkCity Live more than just a concert—it’s a celebration of community and creativity.

With attendance reaching up to 17,500 people per day, ParkCity Live is often sold out, so advance ticket purchase is recommended. The event marks the grand finale of the pop season in Parkstad, offering a dynamic and memorable weekend for locals and visitors alike. Whether you’re a dedicated festival-goer or just looking for a fun day out, ParkCity Live is a highlight of Heerlen’s cultural calendar.
