Princes and Princesses Days

Children dressed up during Princes and Princess Days at Het Loo Palace

The Princes and Princesses Days will take place from 21 July to 20 August on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. Will you be coming again this year?

The Princes and Princesses Days are all about being yourself. Come as you like. It's fun to dress up, but not necessary. Everyone can join.

The grass court in the palace garden is the heart of the summer festival at Paleis Het Loo. Just like in the 17th century, this is the place for games and entertainment. Two shows alternate on a stage. With plenty of fun activities on the grass. Or chill and relax at the cosy chill meadow.
