The whole event was a great success, you can’t call it a flashmob however.
It is interesting to see if a new form of public experience will emerge: public interactive performances.

I was there yesterday and it was great, but there were to many people just barging in and to many people only came to watch. Therefor there was no room for the ‘spontaneous’ action nor dancing. I think in Stockholm it’s practising wasn’t as free and volunteering as in Amsterdam. It was well choreographed who would step in at what time. It wasn’t possible to do so in Amsterdam, because of the juge amount of people. The organization and choreography was well thought, but it’s succes made it different as planned. I don’t think it’s a failure, I hate that word, but it turned out to be a mass event with all kinds of people loving music, dancing and making fun together. So therefor I think it totally succeeded and maybe is a new trend… who knows!
