Christmas markets and lights evenings near Zoetermeer

Gouda

On Friday evening December 16 is the traditional candle evening in Gouda. From 6.30 pm there will be singing and then the official ceremony of the lighting of the Christmas lights will follow. The Kaarsjesavond in Gouda is crowded, so it is best to go on time and to travel by public transport. View the program of the Candle Evening in Gouda here.

There are also various Christmas markets in Gouda. View them here.

Do you want to travel to Gouda by public transport? Due to the closed Mandela bridge, no trains stop at Zoetermeer station. Therefore, travel from train station Zoetermeer Oost or Lansingerland-Zoetermeer. RandstadRail stop Driemanspolder is also closed. Therefore, travel from the Delftsewallen or Meerzicht stops (line 3).
