Het Moment is going for the hat trick! The third edition of the country's largest Dutch hip-hop festival will once again bring a sampling of the hip-hop scene in the Benelux to Tilburg's Spoorzone on July 19. The first ten names have been announced and immediately reflect the breadth of that scene: in addition to the first two headliners NORI and SMIB, legends such as Extince and Jawat will also be coming to Tilburg this summer.
Het Moment returns in 2025 with a program full of firsts and special acts, celebrating the versatility of the Dutch hip-hop scene. The organization is proud to announce that Ronnie Flex will perform as headliner under his alias NORI. After the intimate gala shows in Carré surrounding his album RÉMI, he comes to Tilburg with a rawer, energetic show. Armed with new singles and the mixtape NORI, this promises to be a performance full of wildness. Last year he surprised as a surprise act, but this year he is in the spotlight for an unforgettable performance.
Also confirmed is Amsterdam-based collective SMIB, known for their influential 101Barz sessions, clothing lines, books and a deal with Atlantic Records. SMIB will release new collective music in 2025, and Het Moment is the place to celebrate.
The festival also has other firsts in store, such as a rare full show by Jawat!, who made an impressive return after years of silence at the release party of Sticks' Sunshine. Fat Windjacks will also perform under their own name for the first time. This group, part of Rafting Goods, has already released two albums and is ready to conquer Tilburg.
