Practical
Date
The Pinksterlanddagen (or PL for short) takes place every year in the weekend of pentecost (the christian holy day), in 2025 that’s the 6,7 and 8th of june. The main program is on Saturday and Sunday, you can arrive on Friday and stay untill Monday morning after we clean the terrain together.
Location
The Pinksterlanddagen take place on campsite ‘tot Vrijheidsbezinning’, Aekingaweg 1a in Appelscha, the Netherlands.
How to get there
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.
Costs
To keep it accessible for everyone we ask for a donation. However, tourist tax, renting extra camping space, some travel and other expenses for workshops and organisation, trash and other stuff do cost money. So if you can, please donate.
We suggest €20,-, or €12,50 if you only come for a day. Donating more to compensate for those who can’t is always welcome. You can do this at the entrance/infostand.
Food and drinks
No one checks whether you bring your own snacks. But: we have a canteen where some food and drinks are sold. Dinner (and oftentimes lunch) will be taken care of by Rampenplan, an experienced action-kitchen. All food will be vegan and organic. The canteen is ofcourse alcohol free, as is the rest of the terrain.
Both the canteen and Rampenplan can always use some help. So do a shift behind the bar, cut some veggies or so some dishes if you have the time and energy.
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 🙂
Kids
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.
A-team
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@puscii.nl.
Groundrules during the PL
- The PL is only possible if everybody helps out. You can help out by cleaning up, giving a workshop, helping in the kitchen, doing the dishes, making radio, singing a song and many other ways.
- The campsite is next to anarchist also anti-militarist and alcohol and drug free. We expect the visitors to respect this.
- 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.
