From 5 to 7 February 2026, the Brabanthallen in ‘s-Hertogenbosch will be the setting for the very first edition of the Holiday Festival, the new travel lifestyle event in the Netherlands where destinations, travel organizations and travel lifestyle brands come together in an inspiring festival atmosphere full of experience, advice and entertainment.
One of the participants is &Olives Travel, specialized in fly-drives, tours and tailor-made trips for travelers who like to tailor their holiday to their own pace and interests.
Freedom, comfort and personal choices
&Olives Travel puts together trips for people who want to travel independently, but with the certainty of a carefully constructed program. From fly-drives through Europe to complete tours further away, always with an eye for logical routes, nice accommodations and room to make your own choices along the way. No fixed formats, but trips that arise from the wishes of the traveler, with attention to atmosphere, culture and life on site. During the Holiday Festival, &Olives Travel will show how this personal approach works in practice. Visitors can present their ideas and travel plans and discover how individual wishes are translated into a coherent journey, with attention to pace, balance and experience. In this way, inspiration becomes concrete and a journey takes shape even before the suitcases are packed. “Travel should fit who you are and how you want to explore,” says Debora de Roos of &Olives Travel. “At the Holiday Festival, we show how freedom, comfort and customization come together in trips that you really experience in your own way.”
A personal approach that is in line with the festival
According to Frits Kuijper, creative director of the Holiday Festival, &Olives Travel fits in perfectly with the needs of many visitors. “They understand that travel is not about ticking boxes, but about experiencing. That personal approach, with room for your own choices, fits very well with the atmosphere we want to create with the Holiday Festival.” T.J. van Apeldoorn, strategic director of the Vakantie Festival, also sees the participation of &Olives Travel as a valuable addition. “With &Olives Travel, we are adding a specialist in tailor-made travel. Their participation underlines our ambition to offer a broad and inspiring platform, where visitors can go for both ideas and concrete travel solutions.”
