It has been a long time, but soon we can go out again for a day, with your family to, for example, the zoo, adventure parks or the Keukenhof. Drive there safely in your car, park there and enjoy a safe day out. Fortunately, there are no full parking spaces and walking over heads, as there is a maximum number of visitors. This will soon be possible because the government will start pilots with test certificates for events and activities, among other things. If you do not have corona and can demonstrate this by means of a corona rapid test certificate, you can participate in these events and activities. This is a good step towards the reopening of our economy.
Minister Hugo de Jonge (Health, Welfare and Sport): “. The measures are tough for all of us and it has been taking so long now. That is why we are constantly looking at what can be made possible within the necessary constraints. We are convinced that with access tests we can open up activities more carefully and responsibly than before, so that society can reopen step by step. ”
From April 9 to April 21 there are various events and activities throughout the Netherlands at Keukenhof, Artis, Hellendoorn adventure park, Ouwehands zoo, Blijdorp, Madame Tussauds Amsterdam, Heineken Experience Amsterdam, Madurodam and GaiaZoo. The number of visitors differs per event and varies from 1500 to 5000 visitors. You can register for this with the relevant organizer of the event. If the pilots are successful, the overheid probably more events with test certificates in May.
Minister Bas van 't Wout (Economic Affairs): “This is a good extra step towards the reopening of our economy. Many entrepreneurs are having a hard time, so I hope that we can give sectors the space to get back to work. We will now see whether it works as we expect, whether it helps entrepreneurs to receive people earlier and get started. I hope this will contribute to reopening the economy step by step. ”
Minister Ingrid van Engelshoven (Education, Culture and Science): “It is important that we start with this, also for all those cultural institutions that have not been able to receive an audience for a long time. The monuments, museums, theaters and music venues can now carefully open their doors, I look looking forward to it! ”
