Street theatre puppets, Vriendenkring Snoeyen

The Brabantsedag (Brabant Day) is a characteristic concept in Brabant, the Netherlands and even beyond. Every year, on the last Sunday of August, a theatrical parade draws through the streets of the village Heeze and brings history to life in a contemporary way. What started small in 1958 now attracts over 30.000 visitors every year.

The sixteen groups spend months on building the floats that are linked to the history of Duchy of Brabant, each with its own theme and telling a story. The audience is fascinated with the impressive theatre decors, its expressive or endearing theatre play, music, humor, reality, and imagination. In short, the Brabantsedag is a unique experience with culture and entertainment for all ages.
