PAS-festival 2018

Studium Generale
-

For the fifth time Studium Generale organises the Pleasure, Art and Science Festival. During the PAS Festival, Maastricht University will be opening the doors of some of its buildings to anyone with an inquiring mind who wants to be treated to an adventure-packed evening. Delve into the latest research at the university and treat yourself to concerts, theatre, street theatre, dance, comedy, art, demos and guided tours. And enjoy a drink in between.

The festival hub is located at the Student Service Centre at Bonnefantenstraat 2, where you can pick up a free festival guide to help plan your evening. But of course you can also just wander about and let things take you by surprise!
