Eggs, but very pretty ones.

EGGSHIBITION — get it? Eggs, but very pretty ones, made to be admired. Another clever idea from the folks at ’t IJ. And right around Easter, too. As if they planned it that way. I reckon a glass of PaasIJ may have been involved beforehand.

Eggstra special

Each year, an impressive line-up of artists, designers and illustrators creates an egg for exhibition. These, along with a selection of more than 50 eggs from previous years, are on display every Easter.

There is also an open call each year, offering one egg to a student from the HKU, the largest art academy in the Netherlands. In this way, Eggshibition gives emerging talent the opportunity to present themselves on a wonderful stage.

But there’s more.

Couleur locale

This adventure keeps growing, it's a wonderfully long day full of entertainment, couleur locale and cool acts. There's plenty of fun to be had on and around the outdoor stage to make your beer spill out of your glass. Peak early, while the sun is still shining. That way, you can go to bed on time and be fresh for the Easter brunch.

Together with VOGELFREI in Utrecht, it is well organised every year.

PaasIJ

The reason for all the commotion is PaasIJ, one of Brouwerij 't IJ's most popular beers for over 35 years. It is the beer that heralds the arrival of spring in the Netherlands every year, with Easter as its highlight.

Available during spring in the best restaurants and bars in the country and at Albert Heijn. It will definitely be sold out after Easter, so drink an extra one during Eggshibition.
