Water play area on the market square

The "PlayFountain" is a mobile play fountain where exciting, intuitive and interactive water games take place. 1,024 water jets can shoot up to 4 metres into the sky, offering enormous water fun. There are spectacular water shows with light illuminations and water games with suitable background music. Hot summer days in Bocholt city centre thus become a joyful experience for the whole family. Parents and visitors can enjoy the days in the city centre during the summer holidays with their children, who will have enormous fun.

Up to 70 people can jump up and play without having to wait. The PlayFountain requires no supervision, always has ideal water quality and is safe. Cooling off, refreshment and water fun are guaranteed on a PlayFoutain. The attraction is very energy-efficient - it uses about as much energy as a refrigerator. The water is also 95% recycled. The water is filtered, treated and checked daily so that all limits are adhered to.

Music programme

On three Friday evenings, musicians will perform on the PlayFountain - surrounded by water, all visitors will be spoilt with good music. On Thursday, 11 July, Christian Mallach will delight all visitors with warm and rousing saxophone sounds, on 12 July Sandra Vanreys will perform with an expressive voice and sensitive guitar playing and on 19 July Thomas Engelmann will bring passionate and dynamic sounds to the stage with his saxophone.
