A cinema inside a forest
No ceiling, no walls — only the canopy of Stadspark Berg & Bos and a screen that lights up the moment dusk falls.


For ten summer evenings the forest meadow of Stadspark Berg & Bos turns into Apeldoorn's open-air cinema. As the sun sets and the screen lights up, an unforgettable movie night begins.
— Why you'll want to be there
Great films, a huge screen, the forest around you and the scent of summer. No popcorn smell, no red plush — just dusk, stars and the soft hum of the crowd.

— Getting here
Berg & Bos sits on a beautiful forest site just outside the centre of Apeldoorn. A short walk through the woods is part of the experience — wear comfortable shoes.
Free bike storage right by the entrance. From there it's about a 15-minute walk along the forest path to the meadow.
Park for free at the main entrance of Berg & Bos. From the car park it's about a 15-minute walk through the park to the site.
A bus runs from Apeldoorn station towards J.C. Wilslaan. Then about a 15-minute walk. Late-night service is limited — check return times.
From the main entrance of Berg & Bos it's about a 15-minute walk to the forest meadow. Signposted and lit with ambient lights for evening shows.
— Weather & comfort
We watch outside — that's part of it. With the right layer of clothing and a good mood, every night, rain or shine, becomes one to remember.
The festival generally goes ahead in the rain. Only unsafe weather forces us to change plans.
It cools down in the forest faster than you think. An extra sweater or jacket is always a good idea.
It's a forest meadow. Sneakers or sturdy shoes are far more comfortable than flip-flops.
A poncho or rain jacket keeps you dry and the view clear for others. Win win.
