Polé Polé Festival from the water in a kayak? Yes you can!

Guides

Polé Polé has been the water festival at the Gentse Feesten for more than 20 years, thanks to the stage over the water at the Korenlei, the summer beats and the dancing crowd along the quays. Regular party goers can confirm that it can sometimes be busy on the docks. But you can also enjoy the music in a relaxed way, from the water in one of our kayaks!

From Dobber Beestenmarkt you can paddle straight into the city center, with a stunning view of the stage and the party beats from the water. You set your own pace: float around slowly, find somewhere to enjoy the music or take a short tour on Ghent's waterways.

Who is coming to Polé Polé Gentse Feesten 2025?

As usual, Polé Polé has another line-up for the entire 10 days of the Ghent Feesten. Once again, it promises to be a mix of DJ sets and lots of tropical vibes from various genres.
