‘Wild Wonders of Europe’ photo exhibition
The Hague Festivals

This summer you can view 100 beautiful wildlife and nature photographs taken in 48 European countries on the Lange Vijverberg in The Hague.
Come and enjoy the crown jewels of our shared natural heritage in Europe in a fantastic outdoor exhibition from 27 May to 30 August 2010.

Breathtaking wildlife
Top nature photographers show breathtaking wildlife and nature in Europe in this unique outdoor exhibition. H.M. Princess Irene, Minister Gerda Verburg and Mayor Jozias van Aartsen will open this world premiere exhibition on 27 May. Everybody can then view this exhibition for three months along the Hofvijver for free.

A number of different nature and environmental activities bundled under the name ‘The Wild Wonders of The Hague’ will be organised around the exhibition in The Hague. You can walk, cycle and take part in excursions. The hedgehog shelter and bird shelter will hold open days.

International biodiversity year
This exhibition has been created within the context of the United Nations International Biodiversity Year 2010. The Hague will launch this exhibition as the second UN city of the world. Following The Hague, the exhibition will tour other European cities.

The National Geographic Society, World Wildlife Fund, Nokia, Epson and Nikon participated in this initiative. The project is sponsored by the Municipality of The Hague, the Netherlands Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality, and Staatsbosbeheer (manages a large part of the country’s nature reserves).

At the exhibition you will find an information tent and shop, which are open daily from 10.00 to 17.00 hrs.
