A small selection of projects from the Department of Sustainability & Inclusion

With a renewed focus on accessibility, youth and communities, Muziekgebouw Eindhoven reaches more than 28,000 visitors who are part of the Sustainability & Inclusion program annually. We are proud of these results and want to further increase our impact on a social and societal level in collaboration with the business community. 

Young talent, education & family concerts

The Brainport Eindhoven region deserves a vibrant and sustainable musical ecosystem. This also means investing in young and local talent. Thanks to the support of M•Connect, Muziekgebouw Eindhoven regularly creates opportunities for local and regional talents to present themselves to a broad audience. With new series like Kaleidoscope, regional talents have a permanent place in our programming. With the opening of ‘M’, we have created a beautiful, accessible space for this group. Muziekgebouw Eindhoven also organizes school musicals, music evenings, and projects such as Drawing for Freedom (in collaboration with WarChild), Unforgettable Class, and Tech Sketch in partnership with primary and secondary education institutions. 

Community engagement

As of 2023, 43% of Eindhoven’s population has a migration background. To ensure that all communities feel welcome at Muziekgebouw Eindhoven and feel more connected to the city, we organize large festivals and initiatives such as Merhaba Eindhoven, India Day and Witaj Eindhoven. These initiatives broaden the cultural offer in Eindhoven and contribute to social cohesion within the city and region. 

For the Love of Music

Associations are also an important factor in the cultural ecosystem. Both associations and enthusiasts and independent practitioners of amateur art can come to Muziekgebouw Eindhoven. Every year, we welcome nearly 50 different orchestras, choirs and amateur associations that use our halls as their home base. With the project For the Love of Music, we gladly make our halls available to everyone who loves music and has a need for it: makers, artists and musicians from Eindhoven and the region.
