On March 14, 2026, the Kaboom Animation Festival will host a Dutch Day at the Slachtstraat Theater in Utrecht. The program will combine screenings, discussions, and networking opportunities to provide a current overview of the Dutch animation sector. The day will open with a Filmmakers Talk in which the creators of selected short animated films will explain their working methods. Two shorts programs, titled "New Realities" and "Breaking Boundaries," will then showcase the diversity of the current Dutch production. The Netherlands Film Fund will host the "Animation What's UP?" session, which will discuss funding opportunities for projects ranging from short films to ultra-short films. The day will conclude with an animation reception for professionals.
