Op Strijp-S Eindhoven

From ALTERITY to answers under open skies

This weekend, Strijp-S moves between art, film knowledge and making things yourself, with Jacco Gardner providing an intriguing starting point.

A shape-shifting title, film trivia on a large screen and paint with no intention of blending in: Strijp-S has bold ideas this weekend.

ALTERITY puts change in the frame: ALTERITY door Jacco Gardner @ Hit The City
ALTERITY by Jacco Gardner comes to MU Hybrid Art House on 28 August 2026 as part of Hit The City. Even before anything begins, that title points towards altered states rather than a routine entry on a festival bill. MU connects the presentation with playing together, art and design. That combination opens several ways into the work, whether your attention begins with listening, looking or the ideas behind its presentation. Admission is free, removing one practical barrier between curiosity and the event. ALTERITY remains the defining word here: Gardner’s name may lead the billing, but the title refuses to sit still. Friday, 28 August 2026 at 19:00 · MU Hybrid Art House. Free.
Neon Kisses takes two hours: Neon Kisses
Neon Kisses gives Friday evening a painting date with a title that could never be mistaken for beige. The workshop takes place on 28 August at Rembrandt atelier on Leidingstraat in Strijp-S. Participants spend two hours making, with guidance and materials included. That creates a clear frame for the session: sustained time with paint and instructions, rather than a fleeting encounter with a blank surface. Participation costs €42.50. For friends, colleagues or a date, the shared focus can be the draw: two hours on the same task, without assembling the materials beforehand. Friday, 28 August 2026 at 20:00 · Rembrandt atelier, Eindhoven Strijp-S. Price: € 42,5.
Natlab puts cinema on the quiz table: De Grote Natlab Buitenfilmquiz
De Grote Natlab Buitenfilmquiz turns film knowledge into something rather louder than a whispered argument during the credits. On 30 August, the quiz appears as an outdoor film event in Natlab’s courtyard, with cinema on a large screen. Natlab says 500 film lovers will compete live in this first edition. The organiser’s programme spans clips, classics, cult heroes, soundtracks and unexpectedly sharp questions. Players compete together, although the answers naturally remain the responsibility of each team. Anyone who has insisted that one particular supporting actor was crucial can finally submit the theory for scoring. Sunday, 30 August 2026 at 20:15 · NatLab.
A city guide reads Strijp-S aloud: Open Strijp-S tour with city guide
The public Strijp-S tour replaces solitary glances at façades with a walk led by a city guide. According to the provider, the route explores the area’s industrial heritage. It begins at Blok 63-S, a reassuringly precise meeting point for anyone who usually loses the group before building number three. The guided tour runs on the third Sunday of every month. Advance online booking is required. Its useful distinction from wandering independently is not simply distance covered, but the presence of a guide who can connect buildings with their historical context. Book ahead · Startpunt Blok 63-S.
Kickboxing without the fighting talk: The Kickboxing Society Eindhoven
The Kickboxing Society Eindhoven presents kickboxing as training you join, rather than a sport watched from the sidelines. The provider describes its offer as accessible kickboxing fitness and beginner group training. The emphasis therefore sits on practising within a class format, without requiring an impressive sporting autobiography at the door. The Eindhoven location follows a weekly timetable and lists a free taster session in its programme. Curiosity can enter the ring first; a longer training routine can follow later. Current class details and times appear in the location’s timetable. Weekly schedule · The Kickboxing Society Eindhoven.
Pastryclub goes beyond the icing: Pastryclub workshops and courses
At Pastryclub’s workshops and courses, sweet things are not merely objects to point at through glass. Pastryclub says participants learn patisserie, baking and chocolate techniques. That gives pastries, chocolates and cake layers a technical dimension, although the programme promises no fixed finished result. The current workshops and courses are available on request. Its official location is at Ketelhuisplein, placing edible craft within Strijp-S’s broader design landscape. For home bakers and chocolate enthusiasts, the hook is understanding the technique behind the treat, not simply tasting what is already there. On request · Pastryclub.
Pearl-S: The Inventors crack the Quantum Code
De Uitvinders en de Quantum Code is a workshop at De Ontdek-fabriek and part of DE OPENING. It begins at 11am on Sunday 30 August, bringing invention and a mysterious code together in one title. Precisely what that code conceals remains for the inventors to tackle; the confirmed setting is De Ontdek-fabriek in Strijp-S. Sunday, 30 August 2026 at 11:00 · De Ontdek-fabriek.
Rumor-S: An early signal from De Ontdek-fabriek
One early signal suggests that De Ontdek-fabriek at Torenallee 22 may be open. Clear current confirmation has not yet followed, so treat this as local chatter with a potentially useful centre. Anyone considering a journey specifically for the venue may prefer to wait for firmer details before setting off.
Ketelhuis works on several levels
Ketelhuis at Ketelhuisplein 1 describes itself as a collection of coffee house, bakery, restaurant, food lab, rooftop garden and upstairs space. The venue says visitors can eat, drink or taste there. That makes it a possible final address after art, quiz questions or a guided walk. Its current offer and opening hours are available directly from Ketelhuis.
studioRUIG picks leather and bold colour
studioRUIG at Torenallee 60-10 carries collections by Klaartje Glashorster, Inge Hendriks and Sophie Soons. The label describes its clothing as androgynous, with strong colour and pure materials. Leather has a recognisable place in the collections, studioRUIG says, with no two pieces alike. That provides a concrete hook for anyone who prefers examining clothes through material and design rather than short-lived trend language.
FLXN puts urban dance on the timetable
FLXN Dance Academy lists hip-hop, street dance and other urban dance classes for children and adults. Classes follow a weekly timetable, with a current programme for 2026. The dance school also offers the option of a taster class. FLXN therefore provides a next step for anyone who would rather perform the movement themselves than assess it exclusively from a chair.
