ILLUMINATED PARADE
17th April 2026
On Friday evening you can view the parade in a different light. At 21:00 hrs we illuminate the floats with thousands of lights as they drive through the charming village of Noordwijkerhout.
Want to have a close-up view of the floats? This is possible on Friday afternoon when they line up in the streets of this bulb-growing village. Local businesses meanwhile organise outdoor activities. After dusk we turn on the lights and drive through the streets. Want to cheer on the participants? See below for details of the route.
