Dragtivism workshop with House of Extinction

House of Extinction's participatory dragtivist workshops are a staple at 2.Dh5 festival. This year, they return with an extended session to explore the artform's political potential, theory/herstory, practice/experiment and presentation/performance.

NEW SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT!

Silent Call Collective presents:

*TOMAR CONTROL*
TOMAR CONTROL is a hardcore band from Lima, Peru, active since 2014. Formed with the aim of increasing the representation of female-identifying individuals in a scene traditionally dominated by men, the band brings a vital and urgent voice to hardcore.
With a raw, direct sound inspired by late ’80s and ’90s hardcore, TOMAR CONTROL deliver a powerful message rooted in both social and personal struggles. Their lyrics address feminism, P.M.A. (Positive Mental Attitude), veganism, straight edge values, and an uncompromising rejection of all forms of discrimination.

*Passed Out*
Passed Out bring you the sassy hardcore experience! With WEB OF LIES, they present their debut EP and another handful of danceable tracks with a sometimes playful, sometimes emotional, sometimes combative touch.
Since the beginning of 2023, Aleks, Marius, Ana, Fabi and Briegel have been playing shows wherever there is Spezi. After Aleks had already recorded a feature for XOXO on ‘Punisher’, the Cologne-Bonn band released their first own tape in March 2025.

Mutiny Bookings for March brings you something unique: An audio-visual performance that reimagines ACU’s history as a living fable, seen through the distorted, playful, and poetic lens of a modern Alice. Blending immersive sound, live voices, and visual storytelling, the piece transforms the building’s past into a dreamlike journey across timelines. It becomes both a tribute to ACU and a new artistic portal where Utrecht’s underground culture is experienced as living fiction. Doors open 20:00 Performance starts 20:30 Ticket 12€ (doorsale only) After the performance, dj set curated by Nico Fytas will follow until late #acu #acuutrecht #utrecht

The second day of the ACU 50th year anniversary features a full day festival with night programming! Inside the lovely Blue building of the Voorstraat! This one is booked by @schofje involving places all around Utrecht. Friends got booked yet their connections are beyond where all of us frequently saw each other! WHERE: ACU DOORS OPEN: 16:30 PRESALES: 10-15 THREE DAY TICKET: 30-40 LINK IN BIO BANDPROGRAMMING: @consensual__peggy - Experimental punk! Loud, screaming, strong, having a sold out EP release party in fall, they have shown that they can open up a sound and rile up a crowd! They aren't here to do emotional labor. @woodygrooves - Grassroots Synthpop Activism, grassroots, they have shown that it doesn't have to sound angry but can absolutely sound fun! @quatschband - Eggpunk waiting to hatch Angry, Young, Punk. Quatsch has shown in their debut at OCCII that they are here to stay, they are not going anywhere and have shown that eggpunk can take different interactions in sound. @za #acu #acuutrecht #utrecht

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 ACU turns 50 this year, and we are having a weekend of celebration! Every day is put for you together by a different booker, who has been active recently within ACU walls. Friday, the first day of the party, will be spent with friends of @rotten.tooth.punk, bands and people who supported the place and brought heavy music to our stage. Throwing Bricks ~ screamo/sludge Throwing Bricks plays crushing sludge shaped by hardcore punk, black metal, and screamo. Raw, furious, and emotionally heavy — harsh vocals, dirty bass, low melodic guitars, and relentless drums. @throwingbricksband Ontaard ~ post-metal Black metal riffs, spoken word, and noise into a sound that’s melodic, heavy, and raw. @ontaardband Ruona Neida ~ screamo Harsh, tight and melodic screamo. Check out the debut long-play, which in fact is even shorter than your attention span. @ruona.neida Thanks to @smbduknow of Ruona Neida for the poster! Daily and full weekend tickets are available on acu.nl 🎉🎉🎉🎉� #acu #acuutrecht #utrecht

We´re really sad to hear that Pablo, frontman and fiddle player of Angry Zeta, passed away today. We had a blast to host them last year during our Folk Punk Woensdag event, where he turned ACU upside down. Our thoughts are with his bandmates, family and friends. Sending you lots of love on behalf of the ACU crew. We will miss you. #acu #acuutrecht #utrecht
