deSingel’s intention is to become a vigorous and large-scale arts campus that presents and produces contemporary and international art and makes it accessible to the broadest possible audience.
The artistic disciplines to which deSingel has committed itself are theatre, dance, music and architecture. Its core task is to show and offer support to the production of contemporary international art. This involves the work of both foreign artists and companies and work from Belgium that seeks to connect up with the international nature of its operations. Presentation and production (and coproduction) take place in the context of cohesive program entities and are underpinned for the audience by means of information and education.
As a large-scale, international, multidisciplinary arts campus, deSingel operates on the basis of a unique infrastructure: a medium-sized concert hall (968 seats), a large hall for theatre and dance (801 seats) and a small hall for talks (90 seats). Architectural exhibitions are held in the corridors.
