Event Description: |
De Lokerse Feesten is a ten-day city festival that takes place during the month of August in Lokeren, East Flanders, Belgium. The Lokerse Feesten took place for the first time in 1975.
What started as a small-scale party, organized by the local youth centers and some enthusiasts, grew into a fully-fledged 10-day (city) festival in 42 years. The festival site on the Grote Kaai currently has a capacity of 15,000 visitors. The term "Lokerse Feesten" has become a collective name for all activities within those 10 days in the city center of Lokeren (just as happened with the Gentse Feesten. During the Lokerse Feesten, visitors can also visit the Fonnefeesten, a second festival site, which takes place is located in the Princess Josephine Charlottepark, which used to be home to the Polifonics festival, which had its last edition in 2013. Up to and including 2014, the Fonne parties took place at the Oude Vismijn van Lokeren, after which they moved to the current location. |
