Arrival of Sinterklaas in Hilversum
Sunday 16 November
On November 16 the city will be buzzing with excitement: Sinterklaas is coming to Hilversum!
First, he makes a short stop on Texel and the very next day he sails straight to Hilversum.

After his arrival, he will travel through Hilversum to greet as many children as possible. The festive ride ends at Kerkbrink, where Sinterklaas will head to his bedroom to rest after the long journey. Will you come and welcome him too?
