SUMMARY:Spellenspektakel 2026
DESCRIPTION:Spellenspektakel is the largest game fair in the Netherlands\, and the best part is that you do not just look at games\, you play them.

Plenty of games are language independent\, so it works fine if your Dutch is still a work in progress. \n\nWhen: Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 November 2026\, 10:00 to 18:00\nWhere: Halls 10\, 11 and 12\, Jaarbeurs Utrecht\nTickets: Adults €22 presale (€24 on the day)\, children 4 to 12 €7.50\, family ticket €45\, adult weekend €37.50. Under 3s free. Buy online in advance\nGetting there: The Jaarbeurs is right next to Utrecht Centraal; direct trains from Amsterdam Centraal take about 30 minutes\n\nGood to know: Very family friendly\, and a sneaky way to do your Sinterklaas and Christmas shopping. \nPlanning your year? See everything on the events calendar.
