Culture Club goes Grand Tour

A night by the Mauritshuis Culture Club

27 Nov 2025, 12:00
Gathering at the Atrium of the Mauritshuis

The Culture Club goes Grand Tour! Back in the 17th and 18th centuries, the Grand Tour was basically a gap year for wealthy young British men. Italy was their destination, the place to be for art, culture, and collecting the coolest souvenirs.

On the evening of November 27, we’ll dive into the exhibition 'The Grand Tour – Destination Italy' at the Mauritshuis. Discover how the rich kids of the past traveled (and what they brought home as ‘souvenirs’). You’ll also get to create your own little portrait to take home.

Program
