Christmas in Rotterdam

Christmas Circus Ahoy

For the past 44 years there has been a Christmas circus in Ahoy. This year isn’t any different! There will be a beautiful show with lots of humor, sensation and surprises. As the largest and oldest Christmas circus of the Netherland, they have of course quite a track record. This year promises a very special show. The circus presents you  the very best circus acts of the whole world.

Christmas City Walk

From 20 to the 24^th of December there is a daily (and free) Christmas walk with the Rotterdam guide Eveline van Wanrooij. The walk takes you to the most beautiful and fun places that Rotterdam in Christmas has to offer.

Every day the city walk stats at 15.30 and on the 24^th at 14.30. You can reserve yourself a spot at Rotterdam Info.

Christmas Market

From the 6^th of December till the 4^th of January there is a cozy Christmas market on the Lijnbaan and Binnenwegplein. Here you can enjoy some tasty Christmas treats, or buy some last moment Christmas gifts. It’s a Christmas market that lives and breathes Christmas!

Ice Skating

There is nothing more Dutch than ice skating! That’s also why there are a few skating rinks in the city. And the best? These are also open during Christmas!

The first skating rink is located in Rotterdam Kralingen, at the hockey club Leonidas. They have a 400-meter track and a 800m2 fun track. For only 5 euro’s entrance fee you can skate all day! They are also opened with Christmas, but mind the different closing times!

At Plaswijckpark (Rotterdam- Schiebroek) they have a whole winter wonderland set up. You can either go ice skating at the 100 m2 skating rink, or enjoy one of the many Christmas themed adventures that the park has to offer. For €11.20 p.p. you can have a day fill with winter fun!
