With CRUISE & STYLE Magazine, the Holiday Festival welcomes a special media partner that focuses entirely on the world of cruises. The glossy magazine, published for 17 years by owner Rudy Beckx, joins the first edition of the festival that will take place from 5 to 7 February 2026 in the Brabanthallen in ‘s-Hertogenbosch.
Rudy Beckx (owner of Beckx Media and publisher of CRUISE & STYLE Magazine) sees the participation as a logical step: “CRUISE & STYLE focuses on cruise enthusiasts who are looking for inspiration, luxury and quality. The Holiday Festival offers a wonderful stage to reach this target group directly and to introduce them to the versatility of cruising. We believe in the power of this event and are happy to be part of it from the start.”
Frits Kuijper (co-founder of the Vakantie Festival) is enthusiastic about the collaboration: “CRUISE & STYLE brings a touch of exclusivity and luxury to the festival. It shows that our event not only brings together destinations and travel companies, but also the stories, media and brands that enrich travel. This is a valuable addition to our line-up.”
T.J. van Apeldoorn (co-founder of the Holiday Festival) emphasizes the significance of this participation: “The presence of a leading magazine such as CRUISE & STYLE underlines that the Holiday Festival is a platform that is widely supported. It strengthens our reach within the cruise world and provides visitors with extra inspiration to think about their next voyage.”
The Holiday Festival will take place in the spring of 2026 and brings together destinations, travel companies and travel lifestyle brands in an inspiring festival atmosphere full of experience, advice and entertainment.
