This year, the Redheads Days festival includes music, food trucks and multiple workshops designed especially for the redheads, from makeup explainers to skin cancer prevention awareness.

This year, the festival took place from August 29 to 31, 2025.

Fun facts

Although the festival remains open to all, there was one suchexception: the group photo session, which took place on Sunday, August 31, 2025

The tradition of celebrating redheads can be traced two decades ago when a Dutch artist Bart Rouwenhorst put out a call for 15 red-haired models for an art project in a local newspaper.

He got 10 times the response he was expecting and brought the redheads group together for a photo.

The project gained so much popularity that Rouwenhorst decided to organize a similar event the following year and since then he has been overseeing the festival himself as it has now expanded into the multiday event.

People who come to participate in this festival become like a family because they all have one goal in mind: spreading happiness through diversity.

Let's take you through some of the amazing redheads of 2025:
