Experience Leeuwarden Sprrrrrrring!
Summer in LeeuwardenThe days are long, the trees are green, and the sun is shining bright: it’s summer in our little city! And we’re eager to show off the sunniest side of Leeuwarden. We flock to the terraces, cool off in the park, and wander through the streets. This summer, go wild at the best festivals, meet your friends on the water, and dive into culture at the newest exhibitions in the Leeuwarden museums. Other priorities? Celebrate the 150st birthday of double spy Mata Hari and join some cool events during the Oldehove glow-up! Ready? Set? Go!
