Tips & Advice
- Start at the Fontanusplein, where Sinterklaas and his Pieten are welcomed with the Pietenfanfare and greeted by Mayor Lambooij.
- Stay after the official welcome, because Sinterklaas then makes a short tour through the shopping centre and there's a programme for the kids.
- Dress the children warmly for a November afternoon, because the welcome and the tour through the centre both happen outdoors.
- If the kids want more, come back to Winkelcentrum Putten for Pietenpret on Saturday 28 November, when the Pieten are around again.
