Bokeltsen Treff

What's it like to drive an excavator yourself? What does Bocholt look like when you're soaring high above the town centre? And who'll make it all the way to the top in the pole-climbing challenge?

At this year's Bokeltsen Treff, things are set to get hands-on, exciting and quite high up at various locations. Bocholt-based companies are bringing large machines and special activities right into the city centre, inviting visitors to have a go and be amazed.

There are fantastic hands-on activities and attractions waiting for you all over the place:

• Neutorplatz:

  • Reach new heights with Lift it's aerial work platform
  • Have a go at operating an excavator with Mesken Hoch-, Tief- und Straßenbau
  • Explore the inside of a fire engine
  • Get up close to a THW vehicle

• St. Georg-Platz:

  • Reach new heights with the crane: experience Bocholt from above from the gondola with Schares mobile cranes
  • Try out machinery & photo opportunity with Tekaath - including a giant inflatable chainsaw
  • Operate an excavator with Schöttler

• Market Square: Pile climbing with Holzbau Kampshoff

In addition, there are plenty of special promotions in the shops with attractive offers.

Have a look. Find out more. Get involved.

Following its huge success two years ago, the Bocholt Clubs and Organisations Fair is taking place for the second time. Around 70 clubs and organisations will be showcasing what Bocholt has to offer in the Shopping-Arkaden.

Whether it's sport, culture, volunteering, leisure or social engagement - the Clubs Fair highlights the diversity of Bocholt's club life and invites you to discover new opportunities, strike up a conversation and perhaps even get involved yourself.

The Clubs and Organisations Fair is run by the City of Bocholt and organised by the Volunteer Agency.
