Met een mix van trots en een klein beetje verdriet laten we jullie weten dat onze eigen ISA SOFI, de vaste kracht achter zoveel van onze avonden, OpHetSchoolplein gaat verlaten om zich volledig te richten op haar DJ-carrière. Zonder haar energie en de liefde die ze in dit concept heeft gestoken, hadden wij nooit gestaan waar we nu staan.

Deze editie is daarom extra speciaal – een laatste dans met ISA SOFI zoals alleen zij dat kan. Kom dit voor een laatste keer vieren bij onze thuisbasis Wibar. 

OPHETSCHOOLPLEIN

ISA SOFI’s LAST DANCE OPHETSCHOOLPLEIN

Join us on Saturday, December 14th at Wibar Leiden for a special vinyl-only night, as we celebrate three years of 403 Forbidden.

For this milestone edition, we're thrilled to welcome none other than Berlin-based Chami. Known for his storytelling abilities and as one of the early adopters of the F2F format (alongside OPH), Chami has established himself as a leading name in today’s techno scene.

Expect nothing but pure, stripped-back energy.
1 mixer, 2 turntables and loads of techno.

3 Years of 403 Forbidden w/ Chami

Something new! From December onwards we'll be hosting nights with live acts every month with Live in de Loods. 🔊

Our first edition will be all about indie, punk and shoegaze with poppy hooks, punky basslines and raw guitars. We're kicking things off with Mood Bored on December 20th! Mood Bored is an exciting indie-rock trio and the perfect mainact for our first Live in de Loods: an existential crisis that feels like a summer breeze. Support from Baaf, Sea Foam Grey and Ringo Starrbucks!

Follow @liveindeloods on Instagram to stay up to date and for more info! December 20th at Wibar. See you there. 🫶🏼

De KerstSwing 2024 wordt weer bepaald geen stille nacht vol met muziek en dans! We hebben wederom drie fantastische DJ’s die je de hele avond een muzikaal kerstdiner serveren!

Het voorgerecht wordt bereid door Swie Tio, popjournalist bij o.a. OOR en Lowlands. Voorheen programmeur en DJ. Niet alleen in het LVC maar ook in o.a. Melkweg, Odeon en RoXY. Later had hij DJ-residenties in Paard, Paradiso en Nighttown. Zo nu en dan nog actief op bruiloften en partijen. En hij is van deze partij!

Daarna de Kerstman van het jaar 2023! Wie kent hem niet? Kosmo3000 is immers al 30 jaar DJ. Hij draaide in de onvolprezen Klikspaan en later veel in Hotel de Ville. Ook is hij bekend van de eerste 3 AcidHouse feesten in het LVC en gaf daar ooit een dj-mixcursus. Tegenwoordig organiseert hij de popquiz in café het Keizertje. Ronald is een grote muziekkenner van classic house- daytime disco en new wave dus van alle markten thuis.

Als kers op de taart sluit DJ Flo de avond af met een muzikale reis door de beste hits van toen en nu. Flo was DJ voor het LVC in de 90'er jaren, bekend als DJ voor Werfpop, in het Praethuys, de Twee Spieghels en meester van de silent disco! Verwacht een perfecte mix van rock, pop en new wave.

21 December - Alternatieve LVC KerstSwing 2024 - 21.00 - 23.00 Swie Tio - 23.00 - 01.00 Kosmo3000 - 01.00 - 03.00 DJ Flo

Natuurlijk zijn onze vaste visual crew VJ Henry en VJ P'tje weer van de partij met hun spectaculaire video’s en onnavolgbare visual-art!
Alle ingrediënten voor heerlijke kerstswing dus. Wees welkom en zorg dat je er bij bent! De kaarten zijn te bestellen via onze facebook pagina, de Wibar en via onderstaande QR-code.

The Last Rolling Beats of 2024 is just around the corner bringing you Dimitri Kneppers, Remy Unger, Gestalt Effect and Ængelina. If you joined us last year, you know this will be another unforgettable night.


Dimitri, is a regular in our annual lineup, because he consistently brings amazing climaxes in his sets with techno soundscapes that can't be captured by the name of a genre. You will feel that this year marks his 40th DJ anniversary from your toes to your head.


Last year's performance by Remy Unger and Gestalt Effect was something else. The dancefloor was pumping to the last beat. This year, they’re taking it up a notch, immersing you in their deep, hypnotic grooving techno selected from the '90s to the present.
Not to be missed are Ængelina's opening sets. As they are a true delight and a perfect start to the night we'd like to have 1 more of those please! She'll have you in the groove by the time Dimitri takes over. So... eat well and be on time. Dimitri will be on at midnight!


Area 2 will complete the party with 2 DJs we'd like you to meet. Joos and No Consent have sent us promising mixtapes for a refreshing sound in the upstairs room of the Wibar
See you at Rolling Beats!

Another year around the sun! We can't wait to kick off the new year together at Wibar and dance until the morning comes. 🍾
