A day when the family group chat can finally take a break
You keep saying you should all get together more often, but before you know it, another year has gone by. The children have grown, everyone's calendars are packed and life keeps moving. A family day out is the perfect excuse to change that.
At KOMAEN in Oirschot, different generations come together for more than just a quick coffee. There are laughs over missed shots on the golf course, a little friendly competition and plenty of catching up over a meal. It's that combination of doing something fun and spending time together that makes the day memorable.
Reconnecting Everyone around the same table again From relatives you see every week to cousins you hardly ever get the chance to catch up with.
Shared experiences Making new memories together A fun activity creates unexpected moments, even between family members who have known each other all their lives.
Quality time Plenty of time to catch up Finish the day with delicious food and conversations that never seem long enough at ordinary family gatherings.
A great family day for all ages? The secret is not making everyone do the same thing
Grandad might prefer a relaxed catch-up, the grandchildren can't wait to get started and the cousins are already looking forward to a competition. One family, lots of different ages and interests. That's what makes a family day so much fun, but it also means choosing the right kind of programme.
The best family day isn't packed with activities from start to finish. It gives everyone room to enjoy themselves, whether they want to join in or simply spend time together.
For the active ones A little competition is always welcome
A sporting challenge is ideal for family members who enjoy being active and teasing each other about their scores. It's about having fun together, not putting in a professional performance.
For those who prefer to relax Watching is perfectly fine too
Allow time for a welcome drink and a shared meal. That way, everyone feels included, even if not all guests take part in an activity.
When choosing an activity, it helps to know the ages and physical abilities of the participants beforehand. This way, the programme won't only appeal to one part of the family.
Family day activities where having fun matters more than winning
A little friendly competition can bring out a surprisingly competitive side of your relatives. The uncle who claims he used to be brilliant at sports, the youngest player who surprises everyone and the loser who insists the course was to blame. At KOMAEN, you can turn those moments into a fun family experience.
Skill and enjoyment Pitch&Putt: who has the best swing?
Pitch&Putt is golf played on a course with shorter holes. You don't need any golfing experience, making it a fun challenge for both complete beginners and relatives who have held a golf club before.
You can play 9 holes in approximately 1.5 hours or 18 holes in around 2.5 hours. Children aged 8 and over can participate, and team formats may be possible for larger groups.
For families who enjoy a sporting challenge together, Pitch&Putt at KOMAEN is a great way to kick off the afternoon.
Easy to learn and full of surprises Footgolf: hitting the target isn't as easy as it looks
With footgolf, you can leave the golf clubs behind. The aim is to kick a football into the hole in as few attempts as possible. It sounds simple, but once the ball rolls in completely the wrong direction, the laughter starts.
The course has 9 holes and takes approximately one hour. Children from around 5 years old can often join in, depending on their abilities, making footgolf an interesting option for families with younger participants.
Looking for an activity that won't take up the entire afternoon? A round of footgolf with the family adds just the right amount of action before everyone gets together again.
Good to know: wear comfortable clothing and shoes without studs. When planning teams, take younger children and relatives with limited mobility into account.
Turn your family day into a competition with a sense of humour
Who says you should only see your cousins at birthday parties? During a family competition, you might discover a whole new side to them. Your normally quiet aunt turns out to be fiercely competitive, while someone who never plays sports unexpectedly finishes at the top.
It's easy to add a playful competitive element without turning the day into a complicated tournament.
Mix the generations Create teams with family members of different ages, giving relatives who don't usually spend much time together the chance to get to know each other better.
Let the family humour shine A funny team name or a homemade travelling trophy adds a little extra fun to the competition.
Save the results for drinks afterwards A quick prize presentation or a light-hearted recap of the funniest missed shots gives everyone something to talk about.
For larger groups, it's worth discussing the preferred team arrangements in advance. That way, you'll still have plenty of time for the most important part of the day: enjoying each other's company.
The perfect ending to a family day? Sitting down to eat together
After all that activity, everyone's ready for something to eat and drink. And often, that's when the atmosphere becomes even more relaxed. Scores get debated all over again, old family stories come up and the children eagerly share everything they've done.
At KOMAEN, you can combine your family day with different food and drink options, depending on your group size and the atmosphere you're looking for.
A relaxed start Enjoy lunch together before the activities
Start with a warm welcome and a shared lunch. It gives everyone a chance to arrive, relax and catch up before the activities begin.
Options include the traditional Oirschot bread lunch, a shared lunch and other lunch arrangements.
A delicious way to finish A barbecue with the whole family
A barbecue is perfect for a family day when nobody is in a hurry to leave. Delicious food, relaxed conversations and plenty of time together.
At KOMAEN, a family barbecue can be arranged for groups of at least 15 people. Indoor barbecues are also possible.
For the extended family A buffet everyone can enjoy
A buffet is a great option when lots of relatives are attending and you'd like everyone to enjoy a relaxed meal together.
Buffets at KOMAEN are available for groups of at least 25 people. The menu and arrangements can be discussed in advance.
Relax around the table A lovely family dinner
Would you rather stay seated together and take your time? Explore the options for a set-menu dinner or shared dining.
It's also a lovely choice if your family mainly wants plenty of time to catch up.
For a larger family gathering, it helps to decide in advance how you'd like to dine together. KOMAEN's buffets and group dining options offer different ways to enjoy a meal together. Remember to mention any allergies or dietary requirements beforehand.
An annual family day or a reunion after years apart? Each deserves its own atmosphere
For some families, getting together is an annual tradition. Every year, a different relative takes responsibility for planning the day, and everyone tries to come up with an even better programme. For others, it's a long-awaited reunion because uncles, aunts and cousins live in different parts of the country.
The annual family day A tradition everyone looks forward to
An activity, a little competition and a meal together: a wonderful combination for families who want to make new memories every year.
The family reunion Finally together again after so long
When seeing each other again matters most, a more relaxed programme is often the better choice. Start with a warm welcome and leave plenty of time for conversation.
The time of day can make a difference too. If relatives are travelling from further away or young children and older family members are attending, an afternoon programme may be more comfortable.

You don't need a packed schedule for a successful family day. One enjoyable activity, enough time to relax and a shared meal can make a complete day out.

Organise a family day without endless messages in the family group chat
The hardest question is often not what to do, but when everyone is available. Once you've agreed on a date, keeping the programme simple can make things much easier.
Start with who's coming
How many adults and children are attending? What are their ages, and does anyone have mobility limitations or other needs to consider?
Choose one main activity
One fun activity leaves plenty of room for catching up. Especially with younger children or a wide age range, there's no need to fill every hour.
Make the meal your shared moment
Lunch beforehand or a barbecue afterwards brings everyone together, including relatives who aren't taking part in the activity.
Keep the weather in mind
For outdoor activities, dress appropriately for the conditions. Ask in advance what happens in the event of thunderstorms or other unsafe weather.
Agree on an approximate budget
A budget per person makes it easier to choose activities, food and drinks that work for the whole family.
With a date, an estimate of your group size and a few preferences, you can already start discussing what your family day might look like.
