Want to spend a holiday with the children in Den Bosch? That's possible at Boulevard!
Playing in the sand, building, dancing, eating an ice cream, visiting a theater performance, it's all possible from Thursday 1 to Sunday 11 August during Theaterfestival Boulevard in Den Bosch!
Boulevard is a wonderful place to spend time with the children. This year we have put together a special children's program, especially for our youngest visitors. From visual performances to interactive workshops – there are lots of things to explore.
Almost every afternoon you can see performances in the Pleinzaal of Theater aan de Parade. There are performances for children of 4 years old, but also 5+ and 8+ performances and of course parents and grandparents are welcome too!
But there is more. Children can build sand castles in the playground, build towers in a tiny wooden house or relax in the mini library with a book every day between 1:00 PM and 5:30 PM on the Parade at Stichting Stadshout Den Bosch. You can also make furniture or toys here under the supervision of professional carpenters. The smallest ones can paint small paintings on wood. Participation is free!
We have made a very nice bookmark with the drawings of artist Rogier Roeters especially for little readers. The front of the bookmark is only a little white. So children can color it in their favorite colors themselves. The bookmarks are available for free at the Huis73 libraries.
Performances for children
These performances are in Dutch and contain a lot of text. We advice you to visit this performance with an understanding of the Dutch language.
