Easter markets in the Netherlands

Updated on Apr 9, 2025

After a morning of hunting for eggs and enjoying a tasty brunch during the Easter Weekend, you might feel like checking out an Easter market in the Netherlands. Stroll past various booths with a spring atmosphere and various wares that will help you prepare your home for the new season.

Easter markets often have a fresh and relaxed atmosphere, with live music and other entertainment, and lots of tasty and fashionable goods.

Easter markets 2025

Here are some Easter markets we found throughout the Netherlands, which will be taking place during the Easter Weekend in 2025:

Swan Market, Rotterdam - April 21

This flea market on Parklaan in Rotterdam is full of Easter atmosphere and handmade goodies. You could also check out the Hoogstraat, near the Markthal in the city centre.

Home Made Easter Market, The Hague - April 18-21

The picturesque Lange Voorhout in The Hague hosts the four-day Home Made Easter Market with almost 100 booths with all kinds of wares, from art and accessories to antiques and oddities. Additionally, another market takes place on Lange Vijverburg during Easter weekend.

Paasmarkt, Nijmegen - April 21

Every year on Easter Monday, Nijmegen organises a fair in the city centre with all kinds of booths and activities. Multiple market areas, an art fair and various children’s games are only some of the attractions.

Most shops in the city will be open, so combining the market with a general day out in Nijmegen is a popular day out on this date.

Paasmarkt, Vlissingen - April 20

At least 150 booths at the Boulevard in Vlissingen offer wares from jewellery to waffles. Shop with a view of the sea, and add a stroll on the beach to your day of shopping.

Paasmarkt, Born - April 21

The city Born in Limburg has its own Easter Festival, complete with a market with hundreds of booths in the town centre. Tens of thousands of visitors attend this popular event every year.

Paasmarkt, Panningen - April 21

Another one in Limburg: Panningen, near Eindhoven, hosts a market with over 400 booths, making it the largest Easter market in the Netherlands. Over 25.000 people attend in the city centre every year, while the charming town’s population is less than a third of that number.

Enjoy Easter markets in the Netherlands

Easter is a pleasant time to go to a market as the weather improves and the hours of daylight increase, so plan your visit to one of the many fantastic Easter markets in the Netherlands on Easter Sunday or Easter Monday.
