Le Trou Turns Two! A Celebration of community and connection

“Wholesome, refreshing, fun”

On December 6th, Le Trou is celebrating its wonderful two-year journey—a milestone that’s about so much more than just creating another event. Born from the profound desire to create meaningful experiences in a post-covid world, Le Trou has transformed from a simple event series into a living, breathing community. This special anniversary edition promises a memorable night that embodies everything Le Trou stands for. With local hip-hop artist Sandor Dayala kicking off with a live performance, followed by the incredible Rasharn Powell travelling from London just for the occasion. And who better to close out the night than Jackie Jr. b2b KITT, and Helmond Lang!

We’re thrilled to dive deeper into this conversation with Ami Keita—one of the brilliant minds behind Le Trou, accompanied by Passian Smit, who will be jumping into our discussion, bringing that passion that has been the heart of Le Trou since day one.

We couldn’t get enough of going out and meeting exciting new people in real life! We memorized everything very vividly: smells, tastes, sounds, places, people. After having this realization we agreed we didn’t want to go into another depressing winter. This resulted in the idea of hosting events ourselves, bridging discipline
