How do you celebrate?

Welcome to the party shop!

Our party shop is a cheery, family venue where you can find things from all over the world that are used in all kinds of different celebrations. Every day somewhere in the world, something is being celebrated. We don’t all share the same celebrations, but we all like a party. Take a look around in our party shop and discover celebrations you didn’t know existed. Do our music quiz, learn a festive dance or pick the best party outfit!

Make your own papel picado garland!

From 7 September to 12 December, find out all about Día de Muertos in "FEEST! WERELDWIJD" (PARTY! WORLDWIDE). Please note this is in Dutch.

In Mexico, the dead are remembered every year with a big celebration called Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead). A special celebration for many Mexicans, remembering the people and animals who are no longer around. Not in a sad way, but rather with lots of fun by coming together. From 7 September to 12 December, you can make your own papel picado garland with us!
