Psy-Fi is a big outdoor music and arts festival held every year in the Netherlands. It's a place where people can enjoy different kinds of music and see cool art.
The very first Psy-Fi festival happened in July 2013. It was in the Stadspark, which is a park in the city of Groningen. After that first year, all the other festivals have been held in a recreation area called De Groene Ster. This area is located near the city of Leeuwarden.
Psy-Fi is one of the largest international festivals in the Netherlands. Thousands of people visit it every year. In 2017, for example, people from about 100 different countries came to the festival!
