With the world’s top international sprinters at the start, thrilling 100-metre races and a spectacular show, it promises to be an unforgettable evening.

In each round, three elite skaters compete head-to-head for a place in the next stage. In the end, the three fastest women and men remain. Spectators stand right next to the boards and can feel the ice spray at the start.

Elite sport combined with unique entertainment creates an evening packed with speed and excitement.

Last year’s line-up included Jenning de Boo, Laurent Dubreuil (CAN), Marek Kania (POL), Stefan Westenbroek and defending champions Dione Voskamp and Jim Dhore. De Zilveren Bal 2025 was won by Femke Kok and Yevgeniy Koshkin.
