On 1 February, I will take up the post of Director-Manager at the Eye Filmmuseum.\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>I feel honoured to have been able to contribute to what we, as a team, have built up and achieved at the Holland Festival over the past few years. I still enjoy working with my wonderfully dedicated and professional colleagues every single day. The festival is in a strong position both artistically and financially, and preparations for the anniversary edition in June 2027 are currently in full swing. We will finalise the programme for that event in December.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has been involved with the Holland Festival over the past few years, for their trust, the enjoyment and the inspiration. My special thanks go to the supervisory board, my dear colleagues, the freelancers, the HF Young Circle members and the many international and Dutch creators and performers. And without all our partners, funding bodies, foundations, Friends and visitors, there would be no Holland Festival. Their support is of vital importance to the festival, both now and in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Carolien Gehrels, Chair of the Holland Festival Supervisory Board:  \u201cThe Supervisory Board regrets Emily\u2019s departure, but is delighted that she is set to devote her energies to another wonderful cultural institution in Amsterdam. Over the past 7.5 years, our collaboration has always been excellent, and we are very grateful to Emily for what she has brought to the Holland Festival, both nationally and internationally. Among other things, she has broadened and enriched the festival with interdisciplinary arts and night-time programming, and has strengthened the \u2018festival atmosphere\u2019. That is why audiences have continued to attend in large numbers, even after the COVID-19 pandemic, and why the audience has become even younger and more diverse in recent years. The programme for the anniversary edition in June 2027 is rock-solid, which means her departure on 1 February is feasible. The succession process will be clarified and announced in the foreseeable future. We wish Emily every success at Eye and, fortunately, we will continue to see each other regularly.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>De raad van toezicht van het Holland Festival maakt hierbij bekend dat Emily Ansenk heeft aangegeven per 1 februari 2027 uit dienst te willen treden als directeur-bestuurder van het Holland Festival. \u00a0 Emily Ansenk: \u201cMet een gevoel van trots en dankbaarheid neem ik eind januari 2027 na 7,5 fantastische en inspirerende jaren afscheid van het [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":861,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":true,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"activitypub_content_warning":"","activitypub_content_visibility":"","activitypub_max_image_attachments":3,"activitypub_interaction_policy_quote":"anyone","activitypub_status":"federated","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1,15614,11917,8843],"tags":[10722],"class_list":["post-142860","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-nieuws","category-beleid","category-persberichten","category-podiumkunst","tag-eye-filmmuseum"],"featured_image_url":[],"post_author":"Publiciteit Holland Festival","assigned_categories":"ACTUEEL, beleid, PERSBERICHTEN, PODIUMKUNST","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":140947,"url":"https:\/\/cultureelpersbureau.nl\/en\/2026\/09\/holland-festival-opent-80e-editie-met-grootse-jazzopera-champion-en-verwelkomt-ho-tzu-nyen-als-associate-artist\/","url_meta":{"origin":142860,"position":0},"title":"The Holland Festival opens its 80th edition with the grand jazz opera *Champion* and welcomes Ho Tzu Nyen as an associate artist\u00a0","author":"Holland Festival","date":"30 September 2026","format":false,"excerpt":"The Holland Festival will celebrate its 80th edition in 2027.
