Tips & Advice

  • Walk over from Den Haag Centraal, which is close enough to the Lange Voorhout that you can skip driving into the center.
  • Grab a hot chocolate or glühwein at Bar Düsseldorf, right opposite the Royal Christmas Stage, and watch one of the daily performances.
  • Head to the Royal Christmas Bus, the London double-decker in the middle of the market, with questions about the program or lost items.
  • If you use a wheelchair or rollator, expect the shell paths to be uneven until they're packed down.
  • Follow the fair's Facebook page for the latest program of choirs, storytellers and performances on the stage.

Frequently Asked Questions

The fair runs along the historic shell path of the Lange and Korte Voorhout, which can be hard going for wheelchairs and rollators until it's packed down. There are two accessible toilets, and most bars and stalls have ramp plates. Signs are designed with contrast and readable lettering.

Bar Berlijn serves glühwein and schnapps in an après-ski setting. Bar Düsseldorf, opposite the stage, has hot chocolate and glühwein. Bar München is a cozy wooden bar. The Royal Christmas House hosts lunches and walking dinners and has a covered, heated terrace that's open to everyone outside reservations.

What entertainment is there?

The Royal Christmas Stage, across from the Royal Christmas House, has music and other performances every day. Santa, magicians and roaming choirs move around the market, and there are storytellers, children's choirs and kids' activities.
