Youth carnival Ganzegat

The youth of Ganzegat (Aarle-Rixtel) celebrate carnival in their own Ganzegat hall. When winter grips the land and the days are short, something special grows in Ganzegat. The streets become more colourful, the sounds livelier and hearts warmer. Yep, it's time again for carnival with Jong Ganzegat!

The most fun carnival for primary school children from grade 5 upwards, where laughter, dancing and having fun together take centre stage. This year, it promises to be another unforgettable party, with the children's afternoon for the little ones also peeking up again. The motto of Youth Prince Finn and Youth Princess Elina says it all: ‘Don't whine, don't grieve, the party is for all of us, put on your party outfits and let's go!’.

During the carnival days, there is plenty to do with Jong Ganzegat. For four evenings, the Ganzezaal on Jan van Rixtelstraat is the stage for a super fun party for all children, with fun games and performances by the Dance Guard. Of course, Youth Prince Finn, Youth Princess Elina, Grand Prince Sjors, Court lady Pip, the Youth Council, the court jesters and the dance guard will be present every evening. And how about the traditional parade on Sunday through the village? With beautifully decorated floats and cheerful music groups, this is the highlight of the carnival for young revellers. Make sure you don't miss it! Will you join in too?

After a hiatus of several years, this year there will also be another fantastic children's afternoon for the little ones on Monday afternoon in the Ganze Hall from 2.15pm. Get ready and put everything in your diary, because the carnival is just around the corner! Put on your best costume, gather your friends and celebrate together. This will be a carnival to remember! They love to see everyone in the heart of Ganzegat, where the magic of carnival comes to life!
