Free Your Mind Festival is one of the longest running techno festivals in the Netherlands and was founded in 2004. The festival, which annually takes place at the beginning of June, consists of two days and has been located on historic grounds at the Stadsblokken in Arnhem since the very first edition. Stadsblokken holds historical significance due to the Battle of Arnhem in the Second World War which was fought on the site where thousands of visitors now visit the Free Your Mind Festival every year.
