A tour through Ommen. Drop in at that store where they still know your name, a chat at the cash register, something beautiful that you weren't really looking for but took with you anyway. A quick visit to the bakery, maybe a terrace on the Kerkplein... An afternoon that comes naturally. That is exactly what makes shopping in Ommen so much fun.

Ordering online is easy, sure. But the feeling of going into town, getting advice, looking around and being surprised? You really find that in the shopping street. From specialty stores to well-known addresses: together they form the heart of the center. During the Week of the Stone Shop (May 4 to 10) entrepreneurs will put this in the spotlight. And they do so not only with beautiful window displays and fine service, but also with a fun action:
Scratch & Win
At over 30 stores and restaurants in and around the center you will receive a scratch card when you spend €12.50 or more. Just scratch ... and who knows, you might not only walk out the door with a purchase, but also with a prize. From something tasty to a nice gift, a nice discount or even the grand prize: the Ommer Gift Card worth €250. Click here** for an overview of the rules and participating stores.
Extra fun: Mother's Day coming up
Will you be shopping for Mother's Day this week? On Saturday, May 9, the center will be extra fun. Between 2 and 4 p.m., local photographers will be on hand for a free mini-photoshoot. Bring your mom (or surprise her), score a gift and immediately capture a beautiful moment together. A short time out on the town together, just the way it's meant to be. The exact locations of the photo shoot will be shared a day in advance via our socials and on welcomeinommen.nl.
Just do it
So: walk in, take a tour of downtown and be surprised during this week. With maybe a nice find, a nice encounter ... and who knows a prize in your pocket. Because that is Ommen at its best.
Together we keep Ommen alive
This action was devised by entrepreneurs from Ommen to show that local shopping is not only important, but also just plain fun. Take a stroll through the center, score something nice, have a chat ... and maybe you'll go home with a prize too.
