e Grote Schijn door Andreas Terlaak

De Grote Schijn highlights Kralingse Bos once again

De Grote Schijn returns to the Kralingse Bos with an entirely new show. After two sold-out editions, it’s again possible to enjoy the power and beauty of nature during this special journey through the dark. From October 20 to November 6 whispering trees, fascinating light projections and sounds make for a magical spectacle.

The forest comes to life during a completely new walking route of over 2 kilometres full of innovative techniques and mysterious surprises. Nature gets illuminated. With a magnificent spectacle of colours, scents and sounds as result.  Director Christophe Van Hostauijen: “We let people dream again. We created a wonderful world, far away from reality, in which visitors – young and old – can let their imagination run wild.”

De Grote Schijn is open every evening until 11 PM. The starting time varies between 7 and 7 PM. To avoid queues at the entrance and to make walking as pleasant as possible, time slots are used. Especially for families with young children, there are early time slots at dusk.

Regular ticket sales for De Grote Schijn start Friday, July 8 at 10 AM at www.degroteschijn.nl
