Program & Schedule: What to Expect in 2026
The action day runs only on 13 December 2026 from 10:00 to 18:00. The official year programme describes decorated historic houses, craft demonstrations and a winter hands-on programme. The exact 2026 demo timetable is on the museum Advent page. In previous years Saint Nicholas, paper theatre and horse logging were part of the day.
Regular winter opening is shorter; this Sunday uses the extended event hours. Food and drinks are paid at the stalls.
