On October 26th, everyone will gather at 1:00 PM on the Malieveld in The Hague. The onstage program begins at 1:30 PM.
The onstage program includes the following speakers:
Besides, Spinvis will perform!
We will start marching around 2:30 PM (subject to change). We will walk a 3-kilometer route through The Hague city center, ending near The Hague Central Station.
The Climate March starts and ends within walking distance of The Hague Central Station. Plan your journey in advance and allow for extra travel time, as it can be busy around the march, especially at nearby stations and stops. We will keep everyone informed through our channels if there are any major train disruptions or other changes.
The march starts at the Malieveld, where parking is limited. Find out in advance where you can park, for example, in the parking garage under the Malieveld. We ask everyone to come by public transport or bicycle as much as possible to minimize crowds and parking problems.
Do you want to load and unload at the Malieveld? Please contact logistiek@klimaatmars.nl, otherwise, we cannot guarantee access to the field.
Great that you’re coming by bike! There are several bike racks next to the Malieveld, but a larger bike shed is available at the station if you want to be sure of a spot.
Groups will depart from various locations for The Hague on October 26th. Join a travel-together event or start your own from your hometown. You can find all travel-together events here.

The route ends when you reach Prinsessegracht.
From Prinsessegracht, you can easily walk back to The Hague Central Station.
To the right of the stage in the corner of the Malieveld is a Save the Children tent called “Kinderhoek” (Kids’ Corner). There, children and young people can draw or write their climate wishes on dream boards. You can also get wristbands for your children where you can write your phone number in case you get separated.
Near the stage, a designated area will be set aside for wheelchair users and those with visual or hearing impairments. A sign language interpreter will be present on stage. Chairs will also be available for those who cannot stand for long periods. In case of rain, the Malieveld can be muddy. Ramps will be in place to allow wheelchair users to reach the stage area. Please arrive via Boorlaan, past the restrooms. The ramps begin there.
The march route is 3 kilometers long and easily accessible for wheelchair users.
There will be no LED screen on the field. However, a livestream of the stage program will be provided for those who cannot attend due to physical limitations.
Restrooms will be available on the Malieveld. Some are wheelchair accessible. Check the Hoge Nood app for more accessible restrooms along the route.
There will be a low-stimulus block. The low-stimulus block has a different meeting point and is located at the back of the march, where there should be less noise. There will also be no loud music and little to no chanting. You can join this Signal group to let us know you’d like to use this option.
A livestream of the stage program will be available, allowing people to participate from home. Leave your email address here, and we’ll send you a link to the livestream in due time.
The Climate March is registered with the municipality, and we are in contact with both the municipality of The Hague and the police to ensure the march runs smoothly.
It is a peaceful march. Experienced coordinators, event organizers, first aiders, and a large team of volunteers will be present, all committed to ensuring a pleasant demonstration. We expect everything to proceed safely, as with previous editions of the Climate March. The Climate March is also suitable for grandparents and young children to participate.
If, due to unforeseen circumstances, you still wish to leave the march early, this is always possible. For your own comfort, we recommend bringing appropriate clothing and plenty of water and snacks. Want to read more about safety and other frequently asked questions? Visit the FAQ.
To showcase the diversity of the Climate March participants, various groups will participate – groups of people who join from their own perspective or theme. This way, they draw extra attention to a specific issue within climate justice, specific victims of climate change, or express a united voice on behalf of, for example, an organization or professional group.
The groups will march at the front of the march and will agree on a meeting point beforehand. You can join a group (as a group or individually) that resonates with you, or that represents a theme you find important. This way, you’ll always be surrounded by like-minded people! It’s often helpful to register in advance – you can find all the groups and contact details via the button below.
Prefer to participate without a group? That’s certainly possible too.

Prepare for any weather! This is the Netherlands, so be prepared for all kinds of weather. Bring a raincoat and an umbrella without sharp points. You don’t want anyone to accidentally get pricked while walking!
Family-friendly! If you’re coming with young children, don’t forget the stroller. It can be a long walk, especially for little legs. Save the Children will provide activities for children during the stage program on the Malieveld.

Wanneer verschillende mensen met hetzelfde doel meedoen aan de Klimaatmars op de Zuidas – bijvoorbeeld mensen die zich verzetten tegen gaswinning in Groningen, tegen de mishandeling van dieren, of voor een stop op fossiele subsidie – kunnen ze ervoor kiezen om tijdens het protest samen op te trekken.
Hieronder staat komt een overzicht te staan van alle blokken die bij ons gemeld worden, met contactinformatie en het verzamelpunt op de dag van het protest. Als je een blok bij ons wil aanmelden, kan dat via het formulier!
Een paar aanwijzingen bij het aanmelden van een blok:
– Probeer aan te sluiten bij een bestaand blok van jouw thema. Is er nog geen blok voor jouw thema? Benader dan andere groepen, mensen of organisaties of ze mee willen doen aan jouw blok en schrijf je hiernaast in!
– Geef je blok een titel die duidelijk maakt waar je voor strijdt, bijvoorbeeld ‘Schone en gezonde lucht!’
– Let op: misschien wordt jouw blok later nog samengevoegd met een ander soortgelijk blok. Zo staan jullie met meer mensen voor hetzelfde thema op de Zuidas !
