Sven Hammond live in Middelburg

Experience Sven Hammond live on August 25th

Sven Hammond is a Dutch instrumental band known for their distinctive blend of jazz, funk, soul, and Hammond organ grooves. Formed in 1998, the group has cultivated a reputation for energetic live performances and a sound heavily influenced by 1970s instrumental music, particularly the work of artists like Jimmy Smith and The Meters. Their compositions are largely instrumental, focusing on improvisation and tight ensemble playing.

The concert is scheduled to take place at Abdijplein in Middelburg, Netherlands on August 25th, 2026. Abdijplein translates to Abbey Square and serves as a central public space within the historic city of Middelburg, located in the province of Zeeland. Historically, the square was directly adjacent to the St. Mary’s Abbey (Abdij Sint-Marie), founded in 1108 – though the abbey buildings themselves no longer fully stand as originally constructed following periods of damage and alteration throughout history. Today, Abdijplein functions as a venue for various events including markets and cultural performances; it’s surrounded by notable buildings including the Town Hall of Middelburg and forms part of the city's pedestrian zone.
