Perform

We can perform wherever there is a celebration, for example, a devout procession, a carnival parade, a fair, an historical evocation, a birthday party, an inauguration. The flag-wavers appear accompanied by a drummer or recorded music. The alternation of drum and recorded music gives a nice variation to the performance. The flag-wavers appear with large and small flags. We emphasize the traditional flag-waving, although we also have a few modern items in our repertoire. We appear at home and abroad. At least once a year we represent Belgium at an international folklore festival. We are a well-esteemed guest and a welcome variation among all folklore groups. Our flag-wavers are also very flexible in their appearance. They can perform on stage for a full hour, or in alternation with other groups for periods of 3 x 20 minutes or 4 x 15 minutes. We prefer the latter option. In processions or parades, our appearance is not restricted in time or distance.

For our performances on stage we need a minimum space of 12m by 8m. Sound equipment is also desirable for the part with recorded music.

To maintain our present high standards, we rehearse every Wednesday from 19:30 for the younger members and from 20:30 for the adults. The auction halls of Hoogstraten are an ideal location for training.
