Side-events

Dutch Water Week is the event where top sport, competitive sport, recreational sport and water sports come together. So there is a lot to do during the Dutch Water Week, also as a visitor.

Side-events

Proef Pampus

Proef Pampus

Proef Pampus is a two-day culinary and cultural festival. During Proef Pampus, besides good food and drink, other fun activities will also take place. For example, there will be two days of live music programming on the lawn near the square, there is a children's village where children can build wooden huts, and there are fun market stalls and a circus tent in the fortress garden. All this without neglecting the museum function of Pampus: the museum will be open as usual.
Optimist on Tour

Optimist on Tour

Optimist on Tour is the travelling water sports event where children can learn about water sports for free. Accompanied by certified and enthusiastic instructors, children sail their first miles in an Optimist and go canoeing, supping or windsurfing. In addition, the aqua roller and the Optimist on Tour Laboratory, where children learn more about water in a playful manner, ensure lots of fun on and off the water. This is an easy, fun and accessible way for children to get in touch with water sports! *Swimming diploma A required
