In [2005] ZXZW started as a two-day underground punk, hardcore and electronic music festival with 47 artists. Within three years it developed into a festival which spreads over 8 days and over 200 artists. The festival not only broadened its program by adopting a wide range of musical styles (from jazz to free folk and dance), but also by programming film, lectures and visual arts. All happening in small clubs, pubs and galleries around Tilburg. In 2008 the people of Tilburg voted for ZXZW as the best event in their town[1].
ZXZW has a independent culture blog, hosts several art-nights throughout the year and released the Social Festival Model: a wiki-styled website (using wetpaint) where everybody can read and alter the business, marketing and policy plans[3]. .
