On Saturday, November 29 — the day after Black Friday — BlueCity transforms the former Tropicana swimming pool into a circular department store!
Join us to swap, repair, knit, or pimp your clothes and discover original, sustainable December gifts at our market.
As Black Friday campaigns flood our feeds with endless discounts and deals, we’re tempted to buy more and more. But behind all that production and consumption lies a dark reality of waste and pollution. That’s why we say: F*ck Black Friday. Time for Changez!
Together, we make a difference — by swapping, repairing, and giving surprising gifts that actually add value.
What to expect:
The Swapshop returns with Rotterdam’s biggest clothing swap
The Textile Repair Café Katendrecht and the knitting club #nietlullenmaarbreien pop up in the old wave pool
Creative upcycling workshops by Aida Atelier, Bobbinhood, and Ikigai Label in the BlueCity Lab — featuring embroidery, screen printing, and natural fabric dyeing.
Grab your ticket and join the movement!
