Flevo Festival

The Flevo Festival was an open air Christian music festival held each August in the Netherlands. The festival was first organized as the Kamperland Festival in 1978 by the Dutch arm of Youth for Christ and became a private foundation in 2002 the last edition was held in 2012. One month later the organization decided to stop because the visitors numbers were going down. In 2012 6,000 people attended the festival in 2011 that number was 9,500 people.

The festival attracted approximately 10,000 to 20,000 people each year. It highlighted all musical styles, but especially rock, and was considered by some to be the most important European Christian festival. Previous headline bands have included Stryper, dc Talk, Jars of Clay, Sixpence None the Richer, Bride, Audio Adrenaline, SONICFLOOd, Switchfoot and Five Iron Frenzy.

In 2013 a group of former volunteers of Flevo Festival organised a festival in line with the 35 years of history of Flevo, called Flavor Festival.
