Just a little while longer. On Saturday, November 15, Sinterklaas will arrive in Gouda with more than 150 Pieten.

Around 10:15 a.m., the steamboat will dock at Herpstraat / Regentesseplantsoen. The parade will then set off on its procession through the city center, ending behind City Hall.
In the afternoon, the city will be celebrating with a real “Pieten school” for children, and Sinterklaas will also be stopping by.

Here you’ll find all the information about the Gouda parade, including the route, the Piet School, and what else is planned in the weeks leading up to St. Nicholas Eve.
