Tips & Advice

  • Arrive earlier in the day, especially on weekends, to experience the festive atmosphere with fewer crowds and enjoy the full range of activities.
  • Take advantage of The Hague's excellent public transportation system to reach Lange Voorhout, as parking can be limited in the city center.
  • Check the event's schedule for specific performance times of Christmas choirs and storytellers to plan your visit around your favorite entertainment.
  • Dress warmly in layers, as the event is primarily outdoors and can be chilly, even with the atmospheric fires.
  • Bring cash for smaller vendors, although many may accept card payments, having some cash can speed up your purchases.
