Newmarket unveils new four-day tours to see violinist André Rieu

Newmarket Holidays has launched two new four-day tours to see André Rieu’s Maastricht summer series of hometown concerts in 2025.

They include a Eurostar package that is available at the same rate as the operator’s former three-day option.

As well as Rieu’s concert with his 60-piece orchestra, the holiday includes free time to explore Maastricht plus a guided visit to Utrecht, which is included in the programme for the first time.

There is also an option of adding a private dinner-and-drinks cruise along the Meuse River.

Each package includes accommodation, meals and transfers, plus tickets to see the concert.

The two tour options offer a choice of flights to Amsterdam from regional airports across the UK, or Eurostar to Brussels.

The new four-day itinerary has eight departure dates in 2025 and replaces three and five-day options offered by Newmarket Holidays in previous years.

The Eurostar package starts from £719, including a 10% discount available until October 29, putting it at the same level as 2023’s three-day package.

David Sharman, Newmarket Holidays’ chief commercial officer, said: “André Rieu’s Maastricht concerts are an unforgettable experience, blending classical music with a festive atmosphere in one of Europe’s most charming cities.

“These new four-day tours have been inspired by customer feedback to give guests a brand-new itinerary with more time to discover the rich cultural heritage of the Netherlands outside of Amsterdam.

“With the opportunity to secure a place at this incredible event at 2023 prices and with an extra day included, we’re confident agents will be able to succeed with these excellent-value packages.”
