Digitale Druivelaar 2024

The tear-off calendar 'De Druivelaar', known and loved in many Flemish living rooms, has a rich history dating back to 1915.

With this digital version of De Druivelaar, the experience of the authentic product is retained. You see the daily ritual of tearing off a leaf on the screen, you even hear the typical sound. While the front of the leaf disappears, the corresponding text appears on the back.

The app also offers several new options: you can forward the magazine you have just viewed to friends, acquaintances, colleagues, etc. This way you can always surprise them with a nice joke, a fact or a tip from the 'Where to?' section.

The latter section gets an extra dimension with the Digital Druivelaar. For example, many 'Where to?' tips are directly linked to the organizer's web page. This way you can immediately find all information about the planned event online.

In addition, the application also alerts you to the name holidays of contacts stored in your address book.

Anyone looking for a name for a future child will also find a handy tool in the Digital Druivelaar that lists all names that appear in the tear-off calendar. Also names from the distant past, which may soon be 'in' again. Maybe your family will soon be expanded with a cool Reinout, Rogier or Edward or a cute Rachel, Florine or Hadewych.

Every day you can also find out more about, for example, a saint that is being celebrated or a certain event that is connected to that specific day via a link to Wikipedia.

About De Druivelaar

With its 109th edition, De Druivelaar is still completely up to date with the times. It was the Zwevegem printer René Nuttin who first introduced the tear-off calendar in 1915. The name comes from the large vine that stood in his veranda at the time. Because Nuttin had no successor, he left De Druivelaar at the beginning of the Second World War to Drukkerij Strobbe in Izegem, which has been compiling and selling the tear-off calendar since 1942. Only in 1944 did the calendar not appear due to the paper shortage and lack of staff as a result of the war.

The 2024 edition traditionally contains many sayings, countless jokes and regular features.
