This image of blocks, it is my favorite. Because I know what it represents. 👇

▫Blocks that mean showcases with sweaty palms, supportive cheers, and discovering surprising sides. 👌
▫Blocks that mean international friends arriving. Saying to each other how long it has been. And having them meet other to-be-friends.👭
▫ Blocks that mean chilling with friends and drinks in the sunny courtyard. Or late-night dancing. Some of the best parts of the Flock Festival. 💃
▫ Blocks that mean playing a new kind of improv, learning things to take back home, feeling inspired about this amazing things called improv. 🎓
▫ Blocks that are filled with food and talks and laughs and compliments and a second scoop of that delicious dish.🍝

Don’t wait. Clear your schedule. Join us this June in Amsterdam!

Hope to see your signup come in!

Telling you EVERYTHING about the format The Gas Station ⛽️ here are festival teachers Laura & Jochem.

If you take the 5-day intensive, you get to take this format home. Plus you’ll have learnt narrative longform skills, such as
💡building a consistent environment
💡telling one story with a cast of 6
💡playing big characters in a narrative (it’s possible!)

And you will do this in a truly wonderful group of committed improvisers (we know, we’ve seen the list of participants).

See link in bio to sign up! You will also get a show pass 🎫 and discounts on our festive meals 🍽️

Don’t know our festival guest Carito yet? Let’s have Diego introduce her to you!

will teach ‘Playful Teasing’ at Flock Festival 2026.

☀️ WORKSHOP 26+27 JUNE

Provoke to play. Play to discover.

In this workshop we will train something that completely transforms a scene: playful provocation.

Dogs do it all the time. They push each other, dodge, show their teeth without biting, challenge without destroying. Or they grab the socks that fell out of your laundry basket just to show them to you and provoke you into chasing them at full speed: “Bobbyyyy, drop my soooocks…”

There is tension. There is risk. There is play.
In improv, however, we often step into a scene worried about the narrative, about “doing it right”, about having a good idea before we even enter the space. And then… very little happens between the characters.

This workshop is for those who:
Need a finished idea before entering.
Focus on connecting the story but forget to provoke their scene partner.
Let lines or details pass that could have become pure play.
Build plots… but no friction.

Here we will train:
The look that challenges.
The body that dares.
The line that opens a game instead of explaining.

We will explore how to start scenes without a plan, discovering them through interaction. How to recognize the “game of the scene” when it appears. How to sustain playful tension without breaking the relationship. And how to provoke without attacking.

🤔 Wait, didn’t we say there would NOT be a Flock Festival 2026? Yes, you are right!

Instead the plan was a 50-hour Improvathon in collaboration with the Pretend Company, run by our UK friends Chris and Liam. It unfortunately didn't come together.

So Gael and Laura did what any reasonable improv couple would do: we decided to throw a festival instead. 😇

Which is why…
FLOCK FESTIVAL IS BACK ☀

Cozier this time: The Nestling Edition.

The kind of festival where you actually get to talk to everyone. And have more time for dinners, brunches and drinks in the sun. 😍

We're excited about it, and we think you will be too.

Come to Amsterdam for the weekend workshop:
THEATRE ICONS – CHARLOTTE GITTINS
📝 One weekend. Four literary legends!
This workshop dives headlong into the wildly rich and varied worlds of ✨Jane Austen, ✨Anton Chekhov, ✨William Shakespeare and Tennessee Williams.
⛓️‍💥
It can be easy to feel trapped by literary genres, so we’ll explore how to get out of our own heads, make exciting narrative decisions and create messy, funny, flesh-and-blood characters everyone cares about. 💛
The way characters move, breathe and interact with the spaces around them can tell us everything we need to know about power, chemistry and the complex worlds they inhabit.
🔓
This workshop includes a showcase on Sunday afternoon, at 18:00.

🗓️ Sat, 15 Nov 2025 - Sun, 16 Nov 2025
⏰ 11:30 - 17:30
📍 Flock Studio .ndsm. Amsterdam-Noord
👩🏻 Charlotte Gittins

So many good times we had at our festival. And we just want to take a moment to celebrate one of our sponsors . 🍻
How lucky are we? The best beer is brewed around the corner from us and they agreed to sponsor us, again! 😍
Flock being an Oedipus fan is no secret: we have a long history of loving their special beers, and spending long nights with our improv people at their Amsterdam-Noord location (now: ).
Now that we are a little further, we are excited to serve more of their yummy beers (with and without alcohol) at our own bar. Also in the new season.
Cheers!

Our festival this year had some of the most awesome sponsors. Including the very Dutch snack Trafo Chips.
This producer makes tasty organic products from Wolvega (in the province Friesland) and works with local farmers who work organically. They are biological and come in many different flavours.
We love them! (and very happy we have some left for the new season)
Also a big thank you to our friends and for their help getting the chips to our bar. And not eating them all in the process.
