Coen Hoozemans new general manager aviation museum Aviodrome Aviation Museum

Coen Hoozemans (36) has been appointed the new general manager at Aviodrome. He started August 16 at the aviation museum in Lelystad, part of leisure company Libéma.

Hoozemans is thus leaving the world of films for that of airplanes. In his last position, he was theater manager at Pathé in Utrecht, a place where he worked for more than six years. Before that, he worked as company manager for the musical production Soldaat van Oranje, among others.

ConcurHe takes over from Serena van Kammen, who has been working within Libéma as Director of Attraction Parks since January 2021. "For me, it is a position in which all my interests coincide," says Hoozemans, who studied Theater Science and Event Management in Utrecht.

"The Aviodrome has a wealth of stories, not only from the unique, sometimes even flying, collection pieces, but also from the enormously passionate staff and volunteers. I am greatly looking forward to continuing to tell these relevant stories, given the major role that civil aviation plays in Dutch history."
