Sand sculptures in unexpected places

From May to the end of August, Julianadorp transforms into an open-air sand gallery. Impressive sand sculptures are displayed at four unique locations throughout the village. Each artwork tells a story. About life by the sea, tulip fields, the royal family, or the freedom of a timeless beach day.

In the heart of the village, you will find sculptures in places you might already know, such as the cozy Loopuytpark or the green Landalpark Ooghduyne. Stop for coffee at beach bar Zee van Tijd and watch the coast come to life in sand. Or combine shopping with admiration at the Dorperweerth shopping center. Additionally, a smaller sand sculpture will be on display at the De Riepen shopping center and at the Junior College!

The sculptures are situated in accessible locations: the cozy Loopuytpark, Landalpark Ooghduyne, at beach bar Zee van Tijd, Junior College, and shopping centers Dorperweerth and De Riepel.

Discover where the twelve sand artworks are located.

See how the sculptures are created

From early May, you can see the artists at work live. Without machines, without haste. Just sand, water, and their hands. Watch how lines emerge, details grow, and figures appear. A moment of attention in a world full of speed.

Zandsculpturen door de ogen van Peter

Samen met Kirsti verkende Peter de Zandspektakelroute op de fiets. Onderweg werd hij niet alleen geraakt door de sculpturen, maar ook door de rust, de afwisseling en de kwaliteit van de omgeving.
