Tomorrow is National Action Day for earthquake victims in Turkey and Syria. We also join forces on radio and television to raise as much money as possible. Media Museum Sound & Vision in Hilversum is the action center of Giro555 on Wednesday. What is organized? NU.nl lists the actions.
Television
NPO, RTL and Talpa are making a joint television program that will only be broadcast on NPO1 from 8.35 pm.
Chantal Janzen presents the special TV show. Jeroen Pauw and Eva Jinek have conversations with guests in the studio.
During the broadcast, there is a regular switch to the action center in Hilversum. There Hila Noorzai, Wendy van Dijk and Herman van der Zandt report on the course of the action and interview well-known Dutch people in the call panel.
Karsu and Frank Boeijen, among others, provide performances. Johnny de Mol made reports of actions in the Netherlands for the program in recent days.
The end result of the action day can be followed live on NPO, RTL and SBS6.
Radio
Radio stations also pay attention to Giro555. DJs from various radio stations are on the call panel in Sound & Vision. Special radio spots are also broadcast.
