The tenth anniversary of the free PAS Festival coincides this year with the celebration of Maastricht University's 50th anniversary. It's a double celebration, so we're pulling out all the stops with a two-day programme on September 4 and 5. A festive opening will take place on September 3. Notably, the children's programme on Saturday afternoon has been expanded.
