Kaboom 2025 is upon us! Start this year's festival with a visually creative city walk through Utrecht. As night falls, the city transforms - shop shutters roll down, streets quieten (or parties start), and hidden corners emerge from the shadows. But for Kaboom's opening, the city becomes a theatre, as we turn unexpected urban surfaces into movie screens, creating a one-of-a-kind cinematic journey through Utrecht. Follow the glow of the projector as we guide you from wall to wall, unveiling films that interact with their surroundings in surprising ways. It's part city tour, part film screening, and 100% animated magic!
