PopCollegeTour 2025: The stage for emerging talent
At the end of March, it’s time again for: the PopCollegeTour! Six talented bands, selected by six different conservatories, will travel across the Netherlands in six days to perform their music on the country’s most relevant live music venues. This year, the tour will stop in Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Enschede, Tilburg, Utrecht, and Haarlem. Each band represents its own conservatory and brings a unique mix of styles and energy to the stage.
The PopCollegeTour will be organized for the fourth time in 2025, offering emerging talent the opportunity to perform outside their own region and present their music to a wide audience. After three successful editions, it’s once again time to spotlight a new generation of rising talent. The participating acts will be announced soon on the official website: www.popcollegetour.nl.

The PopCollegeTour Foundation was created through a unique collaboration between six Dutch conservatories with a Pop department to give their selected bands the opportunity to perform live on different stages throughout the Netherlands. Each conservatory selects one act to take part in the PopCollegeTour. Over the course of one week, the selected acts will perform in relevant pop venues in Tilburg, Rotterdam, Enschede, Haarlem, Amsterdam, and Utrecht.
