We’re celebrating the 11th of November, the official start of Carnaval season. It’s the day the fun begins with music, colors, and laughter filling the streets. Dress up, bring your best energy, and join the celebration. It’s time to let loose and enjoy the spirit of Carnival. 

 

 From the beer festivals and traveling carnivals of Germany, we’re bringing the world’s largest Volksfest to Het Walhalla for this year’s OkThorberfest! While Oktoberfest typically runs from late September to early October, our special Thor tradition will be celebrated on November 12th at Het Walhalla.

Last year, Probably 6.9 million liters of beer were consumed at the annual Oktoberfest party, along with countless bratwursts with saurkraut, brezels, hendles, schweinshaxe and so much more. This year at OkThorberfest, we will have no shortage of beer, food or party!

At OkThorberfest, you can enjoy unlimited food and beer throughout the night. Plus, you’ll have the option to purchase a personalized Pulletje with this year’s OkThorberfest logo! Here are the options: 

Pulletje purchases can be made through the separate subscription list for the custom pulletje. Pulletjes can be purchased without attending the event, but they’re much more enjoyable when filled with beer and paired with a bratwurst in hand ;)

Grab your ticket and purchase your pulletje today to join this year's OkThorberfest on November 12th! 
  The pulletjes can be purchased at: https://thor.edu/subscription-lists/okthorberfest-pulletjes-2025 
 

 On Thursday the 13th of November, we have the unique opportunity to visit TNO. 

TNO is an independent research institute that connects science with industry to promote innovation in the Netherlands. Established in 1932, it conducts applied research to help companies, governments, and organizations address social and technological challenges. TNO’s work covers areas such as sustainable energy, digitalisation, health, defence, mobility, and the circular economy. Instead of focusing on academic research, TNO develops practical solutions that can be directly implemented, such as renewable energy technologies, cybersecurity systems, or smart manufacturing methods. Funded partly by the Dutch government and partly through collaborations with public and private partners, TNO strengthens the Netherlands’ innovation ecosystem and economic competitiveness. By translating scientific knowledge into practical applications, it supports the country’s transition toward a more sustainable, secure, and knowledge-based future.
