3FM Serious Request is now really starting. From today until December 24, the Bossche Markt transforms into a square full of music, stories, and togetherness. The 3FM DJs Barend van Deelen, Sophie Hijlkema, and Mart Meijer will be locked up in the Glass House on the Markt in Den Bosch. For a week, they will produce 24-hour radio, television, and online content to raise as much money as possible together with the whole of the Netherlands for Spieren voor Spieren. This foundation helps 20,000 children in the Netherlands with muscle diseases.
We are proud that ’s-Hertogenbosch is the host city for this special event. Together with thousands of visitors from across the country, we will make it a warm week!
Use public transport or bike as much as possible
During the event, the city center will be extra busy. Parking can be difficult. Therefore, we advise: leave the car at home and come by public transport or bike. This contributes to a pleasant and safe atmosphere for everyone. If you do come by car, park at one of our park and ride locations.
