On November 30th, the old Tropicana swimming pool will be transformed into the green F*ck Black Friday department store Changez. Here you will find beautiful second-hand items, you can have your old clothes repaired and you will find sustainable Christmas gifts.

F*ck Black Friday

It is a statement towards Black Friday. Because the organizers of BlueCity want less unnecessary consumption and more sustainability. Time for Change(z)! On Saturday November 30, the day after Black Friday, you will find the green department store Changez here, where you can exchange, repair and shop for clothes!

For example, you will find The Swapshop here, also known as Rotterdam's largest clothing swap. But the makers of the textile repair café of Het Wijkpaleis are also present to teach visitors how to repair holes and buttons in damaged clothing. For fun workshops, you can go to Buurman Rotterdam and Roua Atelier, where you can make geometric wall art from leftover wood and natural textile paint.

Do you just want to shop sustainably? You can do so at one of the twenty stalls that are filled with original, circular and sustainable products.
