The Ten Days Off Festival is held in Ghent, Belgium. The Five Days Off music and arts festival in Amsterdam Netherlands was spun off from the Ten Days Off event in 2001. Started in 1995, "'10 Days Off'" began as a 10-day-long Belgian celebration of techno music which has since grown to be a yearly club event. Acting on the idea of Rudy Ackaert, 10 days off started with a small "trial" event and grew into a large techno event. Takes place in several concert venues in the cities of Ghent, Belgium and Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
