That's a wrap on Nerdland Festival 2025!

Last weekend, we immersed thousands of curious minds in the wonderful world of science and engineering at Belgium’s largest open-air science event — and what an inspiring weekend it was!

At the heart of the festival, our passionate DEME colleagues showcased what we do every day behind the scenes: From soil remediation to large infrastructure projects like immersed tunnels, from coastal protection to offshore wind turbines: we’re building a better, livable world at the interface of land, water, and energy.

Whether you came for the science, the fun, or the inspiration — thank you for joining us!

A heartfelt thank you to all the amazing DEME volunteers who dedicated their time and energy over the three days — your enthusiasm and commitment made our presence at Nerdland truly unforgettable.

And a special shoutout to Hetty Helsmoortel and Lieven Scheire for making this weekend extraordinary!
