Shock the Gridlock Event - RSVP Now!

Date: October 23, 2025

Location: City of Haarlem, The Netherlands

Hosted by: The Lab of Thought

A One-Day Event to Challenge the Status Quo

Join us for a critical exploration of the values, systems, and defaults that shape our streets, our cities, and how we move within them. This is not your typical conference — it’s a high-voltage day of ideas, provocations, and practice. We welcome the brave, the curious, the frictioneers and transitioneers — those who believe transition doesn’t wait for permission.

🔥What to Expect?

The day will be presented by: Prof. dr. Marco te Brömmelstroet (University of Amsterdam) and Jonne Kuyt (The Lab of Thought). Featuring internationally renowned speakers, visionary city-makers and disruptive practitioners. You’ll gain both cutting-edge insights and hands-on tools for implementing real-world fieldlabs and tactical urbanism projects.
