Ouwe Sunderklaas

Ouwe Sunderklaas is a traditional folkloric festival on the island of Texel, celebrated annually on December 12th (a week after Sinterklaas). 
Disguised participants, often wearing masks, travel through villages and houses to humorously and satirically re-enact the most important events of the past year. 
It's a lively spectacle for all ages, with performances in living rooms and on the streets, and has nothing to do with the real Sinterklaas. 
The festival emphasizes local culture and community spirit on Texel.
