Honkbalweek Haarlem 2026 Opens Ticket Sales, VIP Packages at Pim Mulierstadion

Tickets for the 32nd edition of Honkbalweek Haarlem are on sale now, with the nine-day tournament set to run from June 26 to July 4 at the Pim Mulierstadion. That is a full day longer than previous editions, which means one extra day of oranje in the stands and one more matchday for the VIP lounge and Sportsbar to fill.

The ticketing structure covers three distinct experiences. General admission tickets carry assigned seat numbers, with every buyer guaranteed the same seat for the entire day or across multiple days. The Sportsbar, built above the regular stands, is pitched as the casual option: an elevated vantage point with an easy atmosphere for fans who want to take in top-level honkbal without the formality of reserved lower-tier seating. Consumptions are sold separately at all levels, so budget accordingly before you arrive.

For clubs, businesses, and corporate hosts, the VIP Business package positions the tournament as a client entertainment venue. Guests watch from the VIP lounge with food and drinks included, seated close to the action on the Pim Mulierstadion's main diamond. VIP tickets for individual matches became available from February 26, while passe-partouts covering the full nine days went on sale earlier, from November 20, 2025.

The 2026 field features six national teams competing in the preliminary rounds: Curaçao, Chinese Taipei, Italy, the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the Dominican Republic, and Czech Republic. Japan, the defending champion, withdrew and was replaced by the Czech squad, whose European Baseball Championship pedigree keeps the field competitive even without the Asian titleholders.

Honkbalweek Haarlem has been held since 1961 and carries WBSC accreditation, making it a legitimate barometer for international competition preparation. It is regarded as the largest multi-day international baseball event in Europe. The Pim Mulierstadion holds 4,500 spectators, which keeps the atmosphere intimate relative to the quality of baseball on the field, and with tens of thousands of visitors expected across nine days, planning your matchday early is worth it.
