Menagerie

2026 · 1 season

Gentle, cheerful animal encounters that feel like a cozy visit, offering calm comfort and easy smiles without any demands.

Overview: This year, Janny van der Heijden and André van Duin are keeping their boat in the harbor. Instead of exploring the Netherlands, the famous duo is exploring the animal world—because animals offer comfort, humor, and a sense of calm at a time when the need for connection is great. *Beestenboel* is an uplifting program that fosters connection, with animals—and, of course, their well-being—at its heart.
