Practical

The Pinksterlanddagen (or PL for short) takes place every year in the weekend of pentecost (the christian holy day). In 2026 that’s the 23rd, 24th and 25th of may.
The main program is on Saturday and Sunday, you can arrive on Friday afternoon and stay untill Monday morning after we clean the terrain together.

The Pinksterlanddagen take place on campsite ‘tot Vrijheidsbezinning’, Aekingaweg 1a in Appelscha, the Netherlands.

You can get there by public transport. A bus to Appelscha goes from the trainstations in Assen and Heerenveen.
If you come by car there’s a parking terrain outside the campsite.

At the PL we don’t have visitors and crew. As anarchist we can expect from ourselves and eachother that we all do our part.
Ofcourse there’s an organising group who arrange everything and keep oversight. But they can’t do anything if everyone else just comes as a consumer. So do stuff! Organise a workshop or share the promo beforehand. But most important is during the weekend itself: help out. at the infostand you’ll find a list of shifts you can take at the canteen, or what needs to be cleaned, and stuff like that.

We use a sliding scale for the entrance fees. The base price for a weekend ticket is 30 euro’s, or 15 for a weekend. But if it fits your situation better, you can also pay 20 or 40 for the weekend, or 10 or 20 for the day.

These prices have changed this year. Read this post about the how and why.

• On the campsite itself the space is limited. However, there’s room to pitch your tent on the field ‘outside’ the terrain.
• There’s also space for campers, albeit not unlimited. Please park them economically.
• If you’re unable to sleep in a tent, there’s a few places we can arrange. Check out the accessibility page for info.
• Please don’t camp out in the forest. Our neigbours have asked us to not disturb their clients too much, by keeping the forest reasonably quiet.

We have a canteen where some food and drinks are sold. There’s a small shop with bread and spreads. Everything is vegan, organic where possible, and not too expensive.

Dinner (and oftentimes lunch) will be taken care of by Rampenplan, an experienced action-kitchen who have been giving us great vegan and organic food since the early 80’s.

Foodtickets for dinner will be available at the infostand. They are sliding scale €4-8, the costprice is somewhere in the middle so please be honest.

The Pinksterlanddagen are certainly fun for kids too! There’s a kids program for different ages, there’s a playground and the surroundings are quiet and green.

The A is for Awareness. If you run into trouble with someone else at the terrain, you can ask the A-team for help. They will check in with you and see what needs to happen to deal with the situation. Or, if that’s what’s needed, lend a confidential ear.
In the info-booklet and posted on the infostand there will be a phone number to reach them. Or ask for the A-team at the infostand.
If you want to contact them before the PL, you can do so through PL[at]puscii.nl.

• The campsite is next to anarchist also anti-militarist and alcohol and drug free. We expect the visitors to respect this.
  • The camping field ‘outside’ the the terrain is not exempt from this. During the PL it follows the same principles and agreements. We’re visitors of the campsite, wether we’re literally camping on it or not.
• Leave dogs at home, unless they are service dogs ofcourse.
• No cars on the campsite
• Bring your own tent and sleeping gear. Campervans are also welcome, but space is not endless.
• Don’t forget your mosquito stuff!
