Texel, an island in the Wadden Sea, has surprisingly many options for taking in a show, at the theatre, at the cinema or at one of the island's unusual locations.

Taking in a show on Texel

Whether you want to see the latest blockbuster, enjoy an evening of cabaret, a concert or a play, there is always something on Texel to tickle your fancy.

Theater & Restaurant De Toegift

Almost all the big names of Dutch cabaret have performed on the stage of Theater & Restaurant De Toegift in Den Hoorn and many return regularly for a new show or a try-out. De Toegift is famous for its unique events, including Broadway, the three-day festival held every two years in the sitting rooms and sheds of residents.

Cinema
