National handyman spectacle: the Hornbach Construction Site

Bouwmarkt hosts first edition annual event June 15 in Amsterdam

One. Big. Spectacle. That's what it will be on Saturday, June 15, during the very first edition of the Hornbach Construction Site in Amsterdam. A DIY festival for young and old that is packed with spectacular activities. To top it off, the finals of the "Best Handyman in the Netherlands" competition will also take place there. Entry tickets can be obtained free of charge from today via www.hornbachbouwplaats.nl.

"Finally it's here, a Hornbach event of our own," says Maarten Post, Marketing Manager Hornbach Netherlands. "The Hornbach Construction Site is a Valhalla for all Dutch handymen. Whether you are beginner or expert, everyone can participate. Do! Because all-rounders sometimes just want to be able to 'play', experiment and try. And that is possible at the Hornbach Construction Site. Unprecedented job experience. A strategic choice in line with our vision to make all Dutch people fans of Hornbach. An event that more than lives up to our slogan 'There is always something to do' and matches our philosophy on the power of experience in the marketing mix."

Action and entertainment
After testing the latest handyman gadgets, hitting the assault course and accommodating the children at the very largest outdoor children's workshop, there is also time to enjoy. From the Dumpert team, for example. Not only do they take charge of presenting the event, they also guarantee a blazing barbecue show.

Blood-curdling final battle
The highlight of the event is the finals of the "Best Handyman in the Netherlands" competition. In recent weeks, handyman heroes from all corners of the country have qualified through regional preliminary rounds. Encourage them and see for yourself how they compete against each other in the battle of the elements. Earth, wind, fire and water are the setting for a spectacular scrap race with various tests that are too crazy to do, but also very cool to watch. An exciting integration with event partners Gardena and Bison. In addition to the Golden Hammer, the winner of the final will also receive national fame, as he or she will be seen on billboards and bus shelters throughout the Netherlands and advertisements in newspapers and magazines.

Reserve free tickets
There are 750 tickets available for the Hornbach Construction Site open on Saturday, June 15, from 10:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Maarten Post continues: "Yes, we are starting modestly, but have plans to grow this event significantly in the coming years." Admission to the Hornbach Construction Site is free. Tickets can be reserved via the website www.hornbachbouwplaats.nl, where all information about the location, accessibility and parking can also be found.
