Neeroeteren Christmas market
Christmas market in Neeroeteren — 14 December 2026. Free entry. An evening market on the church square of Neeroeteren, with street entertainment and winter terraces; a long-running tradition.
Online day ticket, adult (13+): from €10 on weekdays outside the holidays, from €10 at weekends, €20 over the Christmas holidays; evening ticket from €7. Children (3–12) from €8, under 3 free. Prices vary by date and entry time; checked on 12 November 2026. Weekday 55+ visit: €8.
Terhills' Aqua Garden is not a slide park but a calm swimming area with an infinity pool and a paddling pool, ideal with young children. The day ticket, valid from 10 am, is booked online on the resort's day-visit page, and an evening ticket from 5 pm is even cheaper. On site, kids can also steer a little boat at Kids Haven or an electric jeep on the Kids Safari (extra charge, book on the spot), and Adventure Golf needs no booking. The resort sits next to the old spoil heaps of Dilsen-Stokkem and the trails of Hoge Kempen National Park. Tip: do a winter walk over the spoil heaps in the morning, then warm up in the water in the afternoon.
