Intocht Sinterklaas Haaren

Last year, Sinterklaas had a wonderful time at Nemerlaer Castle, so on Saturday, November 14, children from Haaren up through fifth grade are once again invited to pay a visit to Sinterklaas and celebrate with his helpers on the Kasteelplein.

Kasteellaan and the square

Although the castle square is primarily intended for children through 5th grade to visit Sinterklaas, older siblings, grandfathers, and grandmothers are welcome to join in the fun this year. Visiting St. Nicholas on the steps is reserved for registered children accompanied by 1 or 2 adults. This way, we can work together to ensure that children don’t have to wait too long.

For the children, there will be free lemonade on the Castle Square, and of course, there will be peppernuts. Gluten-free Piet will also be there. Parents can enjoy a drink (for a fee) at the 12 Trappists on the Castle Square.

Along Kasteellaan, there’s no shortage of entertainment. Let yourself be surprised by Sinterklaas songs, music, lights, and a spectacular show put on by the Pieten!

Sign up

All children from Haaren (up to and including Grade 5) who have registered in advance may report to the central registration point at the beginning of Kasteellaan on November 14. There, you will receive your admission ticket for the St. Nicholas celebration on Kasteelplein.

You’ll receive your half-hour time slot (between 5:00 p.m. and 8:30 p.m.) via email during the week leading up to the Sinterklaas celebration.
