3. De Parade

The Parade is a traveling theater festival, which takes place during the summer months in four Dutch cities. The festival grounds look like a carnival because of the many fairground tents, a carousel, and world restaurants. You can choose from a varied program of art, theater, and music offered in the tents! There are theater shows for children and adults, so anyone attending will get their pick.
