For over 50 years, the NBE has welcomed the new year with the festive New Year’s concerts from the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam. Over the years, this event has grown, both in the concert hall and on TV, into true happenings full of connection and innovative music from all over the world.

It’s time to celebrate this with the Ultimate New Year’s Concert on tour throughout the Netherlands. If you normally sat in front of the TV, now NBE is coming to a theater near you!

A joyful musical celebration full of old and new songs. And of course, both veterans and new NBE stars from up close and from other cultures are present in this colorful sound biography.

Based on an original idea by Bart Schneemann.
