Nice to meet you

Planning, organising & getting it done

I'm Julia — a freelance creative producer and project manager from Rotterdam, with a love for events that move, surprise and connect people. I've been in the events world since 2016: I started out at WINK, moved up at Eventions, and have been freelancing since 2021. Whether it's a festival, a film night under the stars or a brand activation: bringing ideas to life makes me happy, from the very first concept to the final teardown. I believe in teamwork, clear communication and a rock-solid production that still leaves room for spontaneity and atmosphere — down to the smallest detail.

I love working with great teams on projects that make an impact and stay with people. A little rebellious if possible, but above all: real. 💛

Featured work

Pleinbioscoop Rotterdam

Seventeen nights of film under the stars on the Kop van Zuid, with me as head producer responsible for the entire production. Blood, sweat and tears went into this Rotterdam icon — and I'm so grateful I got to be part of it.

IFFR

26 wonderful (international) events over ten festival days. The role where everything came together: from drinks at City Hall and an evening at Depot Boijmans to a press conference at Fenix and the world premieres of the Displacement Film Fund films, with Cate Blanchett, at the Oude Luxor.

Into The Great Wide Open

Vlieland always feels like coming home. As site manager of the Stortenmelk and the Bolder, I earned the nickname 'Stortenqueen' in my first year. Four beautiful and very different editions, with the most stunning sunrises and Bolder nights that will never be the same again.

Left of the Dial

Left of the Dial is a raw, discovery-driven showcase festival in Rotterdam where you find the best up-and-coming indie and alternative acts before they break through. I spent three brilliant days here as ticketing coordinator — what a special festival, with a fantastic team and seriously great marketing!

What I can do for you

From run sheet to dance floor

From cultural to corporate, from a one-day hands-on event to a project spanning months: I step in wherever I'm needed and make sure it all just works. This is what I love doing most:

Something in mind? Let's connect

Pre-production & delivery

From the first concept to the final teardown: a rock-solid production.

Site management

I'm the linchpin on site: calm, clear oversight and a team that runs smoothly. Artists, crew, volunteers and audience — everyone in the right place at the right time.

Project management

Planning, budget and clear communication. Run sheets that add up — and, in the end, glasses that clink.

Creative concept development

Sometimes an event needs just that little bit extra to become unforgettable.
