Saturday 6 September it's time again for FAT AIR: Scheveningen's BIG AIR contest at beach tent Fat Mermaid. Beach tent Fat Mermaid, Tacho Store and The Pump Factory are joining forces for a unique event by the sea. ‘FAT AIR’ will be an active and festive day full of cycling action, family fun and spectacular stunts.

Pumptrack for young and old

During the day, there will be a mobile pumptrack on the promenade. Here, children, young people and adults will have the chance to ride their first laps or learn new skills. The workshops are free of charge and suitable for all ages. This sporty initiative offers residents and visitors of Scheveningen an active and accessible way to get acquainted with pumptrack cycling.

What else can you expect?

Visitors can expect top-class sport and entertainment in one: with somersaults and creative stunts against the backdrop of the setting sun. Light, sound and an energetic atmosphere will frame the competition.

After the sporting part, the event moves to the Fat Mermaid beach bar. There, the awards ceremony will take place and the evening programme will start. Visitors can enjoy live music, DJ acts and a festive finale by the sea.
