On King's Night, stroll past stalls full of finds, treats and music

On April 26th, the center of Den Helder will be bathed in orange. During the Oranjemarkt (Orange Market) on King's Night, take the opportunity to browse dozens of market stalls. Vintage clothing, handmade jewelry, vinyl, art, and local delicacies: you'll find it all here. With a snack in hand, stroll from stall to stall and be amazed.

Stay for atmosphere and conviviality

From late afternoon onwards, the square truly comes alive. The first music starts playing, and people start trickling in. Before you know it, you're enjoying a drink and dancing among friends and visitors from outside the city.

One evening, full of energy

This market only takes place once a year: on the evening before King's Day. Make sure you're there, because it's over after midnight. It's precisely that brevity that makes it special.

Guided tour
Would you like to join a tour of this magnificent fort? The "Fort op de Harssens," unknown to many, was built as an armored fort by the Dutch between 1880 and 1886, then and now part of Stelling Den Helder (Fortress Den Helder). What will you experience? An authentic fort (without furnishings, etc.) where time seems to have stood still. The atmosphere of 1900 is still palpable.
