Open House Vie well-attended

Over 1,500 interested people from Kerkrade and the surrounding area came to take a look at Vie last Saturday between 10 am and 2 pm. It was the first time since construction began that Vie opened its doors to the public. Visitors could go through the catering area to the stand of the swimming pool and the stand of the sports hall where representatives of Vie were present to guide the public and answer questions.

Raph Stijns, Vie project director: "The interest was overwhelming. We can truly speak of a great success. People were enthusiastic. They were impressed by the building. 'An asset to the city,' I heard that phrase many times."

Vie - Life in Motion is a project of the Municipality of Kerkrade, Province of Limburg, City Region Parkstad Limburg and IBA Parkstad. Vie's buildings are expected to be ready in the second quarter of 2022. Sports hall and swimming pool will then be put into use by associations and the public.
