Rode Hond 2025: Four days of culture and wonder during the autumn holidays

Looking for a creative family getaway this autumn break? From Saturday 25 to Tuesday 28 October 2025, Rode Hond Festival returns to Leuven for four days of theatre, circus, workshops, film, dance, literature, exhibitions and more — spread across cosy cultural venues throughout the city.
It’s a must-do for families, with something for every age. Playful, artistic and full of discovery. It’s also a great way to explore Leuven, from the Schouwburg to STUK, the library to OPEK, Cinema ZED to M-Leuven.
Feeling hungry? Several venues offer tasty lunch options or a cosy break with coffee and pancakes. Discover the most kid-friendly lunch spots via Visit Leuven.
