DORDT IN STOOM

My hometown of Dordrecht (Netherlands) will once again organise the largest steam power event in Europe wthis year (May 20 & 21). This will mark the 12th anniversary of the event.
Holland's oldest city draws about 250,000 visitors to this steam celebration. Admission to 'Dordt in Steam' is free. Day-tickets will be sold for round trips on historic transport (the 'Steam circuit Dordt' - Stoomrondje Dordt).

On Friday evening, May 19, Dordt in Steam will open with an impressive naval parade on the river. This spectacle can be seen for free from the Groothoofd and the Merwekade between 8PM and 9:30 PM.

The gigantic event is spread across two areas in the city which are linked with ships, trains and old-timer busses. By purchasing a day-ticket for the 'Steam circuit Dordt', the visitor will have unlimited access to the various forms of historic transport at the event. It also includes admission to the Model Building Show. A round trip lasts at least three hours!

A MUST SEE !
