More than 2000 walkers stroll through Hoogeveen South during the annual Kuiertocht

The doors of the Tamboerpassage Zuidzijde will open at 7 p.m. When the group enters, the cheerful ladies of the tickets greet them. After scanning the tickets, the McDonald’s tokens receive a light in the shape of a heart. This is pinned on the jackets and bags, so the organization knows that you are walking along. Before the doors on the other side of the Tamboerpassage open, you have to wait a while. But this is not annoying because the Dinges Mweilorkest from Emmen is in the corner, opposite De Pulle, making music. No Christmas music this time, which was the case in March.

Through the Kerkstraat, people are divided into groups walking up the Hoofdstraat. The tour first heads towards Hoofdstraat Zuid, where music can be heard along the way that was also played at the Stadslichtfestival. There are two ‘dolls’ in front of the Vero Moda. They are two moving statues. Both are wearing a suit that makes it look like they are made of wood. The light shining on them makes it seem like they could be so absorbed in the tree behind them. The puppets move back and forth to the music.
