Where the Sheep Sleep is an annually Burning Man summer event in the Netherlands since 2016.[1][2] The Netherlands was the first country outside the United States to have an event officially associated with Burning Man.[3]

As the festival is contested, it led to protests before the first edition[4] and due to commotion it was moved from Apeldoorn to Zeewolde in 2019.[5] The event has been held over the years in Kootwijk, Apeldoorn and Zeewolde.[4][6][7]
