Running from May 22 to June 21, 2026, the anniversary edition marks five years of BlowUp Art [Den](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/henri-nol-jewelry-flagship) Haag and includes works by Steve Messam, Marcel Wanders, [Studio Job](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/exhibit-columbus-2025), Raw Color, Studio Ossidiana, and other contributors. The installations are spread throughout parks, squares, canalside locations, and public spaces, creating a free cultural route through the city. The exhibition originated in 2022 as part of an initiative developed during the renovation of the Binnenhof political complex. Rather than concentrating artworks inside a museum, the project places them directly within the urban landscape. The exhibition creates temporary landmarks that encourage exploration while bringing contemporary art to everyday public spaces.
