The Holiday Festival is gaining more and more international allure. Paradise & Wilderness has also confirmed its participation in the first edition of the festival, which will take place in the spring of 2026 in the Brabanthallen in ‘s-Hertogenbosch. The organization, active in Tanzania and Zanzibar, combines unique safaris with idyllic beach stays and is therefore a valuable addition to the field of participants.
Anouk Arts, representative of Paradise & Wilderness, sees the festival as an excellent opportunity: ‘Our strength lies in offering complete Tanzania experiences, from adventurous safari trips in the most beautiful national parks to total relaxation on the pearly white beaches of Zanzibar. During the Holiday Festival, we want to inspire travellers and show them how accessible and special this combination can be.’
Paradise & Wilderness owns several lodges, tented camps, beach resorts and its own jeeps in Tanzania. Everything is carried out in-house, so customization, reliability and service are central.
T.J. van Apeldoorn (co-founder of the Holiday Festival), is proud of the participation: ‘Paradise & Wilderness offers an exceptional product. Their presence at the festival emphasizes that we are more than a classic fair. We bring the world closer, with parties that really have something unique to offer.
