Activities during the autumn holidays of 2023 for Amstelveen youth

The autumn holidays (October 21 to October 29) of 2023 are coming! AmstelveenSport is once again organizing a number of fun sporting activities for Amstelveen youth this holiday. For toddlers and preschoolers, but also for older children and teenagers.

Swimming pool De Meerkamp. The swimming pool is open from Monday 23 to Sunday 29 October 2023 according to the holiday schedule and there is extra recreational and lap swimming available. Every day from 12:30 PM, the Jungle obstacle course is ready in the competition pool for everyone with a swimming diploma. Except on Friday afternoon, October 27, when there will be water football from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM in the competition pool. Water football is a fairly new sport, which is played in a swimming pool with a small layer of water of approximately fifteen centimeters. Water football is fun for everyone, because the technique is very different from normal football. Due to swimming lessons early in the morning, there are fewer lanes available for lap swimming from Tuesday to Friday.

To note in advance: Halloween disco swimming is the first swimming disco of this season. This will take place on Friday evening, November 3 from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM. A DJ provides nice music and with colored lights and special light effects the swimming pool is transformed into a flashy, swinging Halloween swimming and dancing paradise. This makes swimming even more fun. Disco swimming is for children up to 12 years old. Super fun and also sporty. You can easily buy tickets via the De Meerkamp swimming pool webshop.

ToddlerFestival. On Tuesday, October 24, 2023, AmstelveenSport is organizing the Toddler Festival in the Beweegbox and Gymnastics Hall from 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM. During the Toddler Festival there are all kinds of fun activities for toddlers from 2 to 4 years old. They can jump to their heart’s content on the trampoline and inflatables, climb and clamber over the obstacles and roll on the mats. As special guest this time: Spiderman.

Air Cushion Festival. AmstelveenSport will also hold an inflatable festival in the Ben Goudsmithal during the autumn holidays. This will take place on Wednesday, October 25, 2023. Fun activities will also be organized around the inflatables. The air cushion festival is for children from 4 to 12 years old. There are special air cushions for 4 & 5 year olds. There are 3 time blocks of 1.5 hours between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM.

Online ticket sales have started for both the Toddler and the Air Cushion Festival. Limited tickets will be sold at the door while supplies last. You only buy a ticket for the child, parents/guardians can enter for free. More information and tickets at amstelveensport.nl/vakantieactivities
