Haags Beat Festival returns to the Zuiderparktheater in The Hague on Sunday 15 August 2027.
Rinus Gerritsen and Cesar Zuiderwijk are the first names confirmed for the ninth edition, and both are taking part again.
More artists will be announced over the coming period.
Anyone planning to go has reason to be quick, because the previous edition was already completely sold out in January.
Early Bird tickets for next year cost 17.50 euro, with 1 euro in service charges on top of that.
Autumn and winter at Podium Aan Zee
Alongside the festival, Podium Aan Zee has a run of concerts and other music evenings lined up for the coming months.
On Sunday 11 October, Spinoza’s Ethica pairs philosopher Han van Ruler, who talks about the work of Baruch Spinoza, with saxophonist Ben van den Dungen, whose quartet turns the five parts of the Ethica into live jazz.
Story and music alternate through the evening, and afterwards there are drinks with one free consumption.
October continues with southern rock from Copperhead County on 16 October, French chansons from Tess Merlot on 24 October and a Halloween edition of the Scheveningse Cover Night on 31 October.

Dramtune Night on Saturday 28 November centres on Kasba, a Dutch-Moroccan world music band that mixes gnawa, rai and reggada with influences from rock, funk, reggae and pop.

On Friday 11 December, Algra presents the debut EP Ambla I.
Algra is the new project of Arend Dijkstra, formerly the frontman of The Great Communicators, and the EP forms the first half of a debut album due in 2027.

The year closes with the Paradox Jazz Orchestra and Rembrandt Frerichs on 12 December, in a crossover between jazz and classical music built around the work of Herbie Hancock, then Hague covers band The Clarks on 18 December and De Kraaien the following evening, on 19 December.
