Where exactly will you be then? Any events in East Germany this year? Or Germany/Netherlands/France/Belgium ?
Well. We thought about something in Netherlands. Also have some intitations to France. I think we'll focus on Leipzig, mabye Grossbeeren Grossgorschen. Also there are some events in Poland and Czech like Znojmo or Goldberg, Heilsberg and Raszyn.

I can't think of any re-enactments in the Netherlands that are really worth the trip.

Almelo is fairly large but I don't think its worth the drive. The location is pretty crap, it has no historical value whatsoever.

Good to know. I'll focus on Poland and Germany then.

It depends on what you want from Almelo. If you want a true immersive event on a historical location, you won't find it in Almelo. Heck, you won't find that in 75% of events in the Netherlands because of our post-war obsession with demolishing everything and building new houses on it (Wavre in Belgium is also infamous for that. I don't think I have ever seen a building built before the 1950s there). But if you want something fun with a decently sized skirmish/battle and a busy, cozy campsite then Almelo is really good.

I enjoyed it in 2015. Just be aware what you're getting into.

Yeah that looks like a good location.

I also really enjoyed Almelo 2015, but for such a long drive, I really do not think its worth it.

Yeah, okay. That's fair enough. If you want a more immersive event in terms of location in the Netherlands this year, I hear good things about Roosendael this august.

From wich part of Poland are you btw? 
I am realy looking forward to Göhrde this year in September. A nice location and always a very active battle on Saturday (fighting and moving through the streets of a very small villiage and then reaching the main battlefield). Stralsund (also September) might be fun too. I think the reenactment won't be that great but there seems to be a small Streetfight. But I mostly like to go there because I love the town and you don't do a bivouac just next to the baltic sea often  ::)

Well, I'm exactly from eastern Pommerania. I live in Danzig or Gdańsk. Never thought about those two reenactments. ;)

So it isn't that far to western Pommerania with Stralsund ;) But I realy don't know if it will be a good reenactment as the pictures of the last events don't show much action. But now there will be some KGL guys around wich might change everyhting  :P
Göhrde is kind of small (about 200 men on the battlefield I would say) but always fun. Last time the moving fight before entering the main battlefield sadly was canceled due to bad weather - so we just had two "normal" battles on saturday and sunday. I don't know if it will be worth the long journey...

here are some pictures from 2013: https://www.flickr.com/photos/andreasspringer/sets/72157635725900145/
