Chouchou of Flemish schlagerbizz

Kermis Windeke started on Friday evening 1 July very strongly with the performance of the boy band Bobby, the atmosphere was already great, screaming girls who went completely crazy.
And then Christoff, the chouchou of the Flemish schlagerbizz. The market square was pretty full. In a whirlwind of songs, Christoff quickly made it clear that he is a formidable entertainer and singer. His warm voice will not leave you indifferent. Attitude from the start and pack experience. Immediately one song after another. The songs rolled like a prince on the market square. Magic

on the market square. Christoff immediately has the audience on board, he gives the music lovers the feeling that he is there for each and every one of them. It was really enjoyable from the first minute. The public loves him. After a top performance by Christoff many rave reviews. “Christoff, that’s the max,” it sounds. How does he manage it? Just having fun in what he does. Because of the strength of the conviction with which he brings every song. Life as a superstar doesn’t mean much to him, he doesn’t want to lose touch with the regular fan. He has everything under control. He gives his audience tons of energy. As a spectator you don’t get a moment to catch your breath. Christoff captured all hearts. A perfect evening. Name a concert hall or village festival and Christoff will be on stage. Afterwards, the music party continued with DJ Christopher with a great atmosphere. The party lasted all night. The beer flowed freely.


A fixed value at Kermis Windeke, Jan Parent, with singers Annelies and Zippora. Musical gems. Jan, Annelies and Zippora (what a singer) once again turned out to be perfect mood makers. The 2022 edition concluded on Wednesday 6 July with a real cycling spectacle. Many cycling enthusiasts followed the work of the newcomers and the elite ladies in a pleasant fairground atmosphere. Sporty entertainment, heroic duels, an exquisite course and every now and then a draft of passing riders.
