This year’s opening concert will showcase the Gouwe Bigband conducted by Marijn Wigman. The Gouwe Bigband play music that is ‘easy on the ear’, that makes people happy and gets them moving. The shared love for swinging and jazzy music guarantees a festive start of Gouda by Candlelight 2023! They started as a project in 2018 and had their first performance in 2019. And since then it has been a welcome act at parties, mixers and events in Gouda and the surrounding area.

A large screen with all the lyrics will be provided, so put on your Ugly Christmas Sweater and come and sing along loudly!
