During the 64th Brabantsedag on Sunday 7 August 2023, forms were distributed as usual to gauge the opinions of our esteemed visitors. The outcome, ultra short: 'keep up the good work'.
The visitor survey revealed (again) a 9 as the report mark.
Of the 2,500 questionnaires distributed, more than 50% were returned completed, while online many hundreds of newsletter subscribers also took the trouble to respond to the survey.
Their input provided valuable information. As before, the majority of Brabantsedag visitors come from North Brabant (78%) and especially southeast Brabant, but we also welcome guests from abroad and the provinces of Limburg, Gelderland, South and North Holland.
The surrounding municipalities are most strongly represented along the parade route. Almost half of the guests come from Heeze-Leende, Geldrop-Mierlo and Eindhoven.
The age structure of the audience is also stable. The average age of visitors is 53: over a third (40%) are younger.
Then the appreciation. Once again, we are very proud of the average rating of 9. Even more 10s were handed out (32%) and new visitors gave an 8.8.
Of all visitors, 21% came to the Brabantsedag for the first time; judging by their rating, we will hopefully see them again this year. More than half are regular fans; 55% came to the Brabantsedag six times or (much) more often. They too will no doubt already have the last Sunday of August 2024 in their diaries.
Tickets for this 65th Brabantsedag, this year on Sunday 25 August, will soon be available to order on the website.
