Nerdland Festival Wachtebeke
The largest science festival in the Benelux
With more than 250 shows, talks and experiences spread over 4 days and 20,000 visitors, Nerdland is the largest science festival in the Benelux. The programme covers everything related to science and technology. An event where young and old, students and employers can all discover the most fascinating aspects of the industry.
Making impossible projects possible
How do we build a 280-metre wind turbine in the middle of the sea? How do we install a power cable at a depth of 1,000 meters under the sea? And how do we get the 8 tunnel elements that were built in Zeebrugge under the Scheldt for the Oosterweel junction?
You will find out all about it during our shows at the Nerdland Festival. Because we do not just realise projects like the Palm Island in Dubai. We are also building the transition to renewable energy, smooth mobility, solutions to protect our coasts against rising sea levels and so much more. Discover why we call ourselves World Builders.
Take a look behind the scenes
You will discover this and more about our innovations and techniques on Nerdland's Talent Stage. Are you staying until the end of the show? Then you get a glimpse of the infrastructure we are building to welcome the F-35 Fighter Jets to Belgium. Tickets are available via Nerdland's website. We will see you there!
