After 2 years of non-celebrations, King’s Day 2022 will be celebrated again. This King’s Day will be a day of connectedness – a celebration we’ve been looking forward to like never before. On Wednesday 27 April 2022, the Royal Family will celebrate King’s Day in Maastricht.

Dutch King’s Day In Amsterdam

The Dutch King’s Day is the biggest birthday party of the year in Holland.  On April 27th we, the Dutch, celebrate the birthday of our King Willem Alexander. Celebration time, come on. There will be music, flea markets, fairs, and parties everywhere. It is a feast. A Celebration. Let’s all celebrate and have a good time. So everyone dresses up in orange; everything is decorated in orange and the entire country looks orange. It is so cool. Get your gang together and mark April 27 on your agenda and come to Holland. You don’t want to miss this awesome party. It is celebration time each year on April 27. Come on. In Utrecht, the party starts on the 26th of April at 6 p.m. So bring your good times, and your laughter too. Well, King Willem Alexander: we gonna celebrate your party with you. Celebration time. Come on.

On King’s Day, the Dutch King is on tour with the Royal Family

Each year the Royal Family visits a different city to enjoy entertainment. Previous years, the Royal Family visited the following cities: Dordrecht, Zwolle, Tilburg, Groningen, Amersfoort. King’s Day was not celebrated in Corona time. It is not yet known which city the royal family will visit this year. But we do know that the Amsterdam Cafe “De Blaffende Vis”(The Barking Fish) will surprise us with a display on the facade of their cafe in the quarter “Jordaan”.

No King’s Day during Corona – Covid

The Royal Family arrived by boat at Dordrecht in 2015 and a grand parade started. After the parade, the Royal Family went to the Cathedral where they watched a show by the Bach Choir. Later that day they met city residents; enjoyed local products and artists showed their work.

In Utrecht the festivities start at Kings Night, this is on the evening of the 26th at 18.00 hours.

So? Will you join us on King’s Day?
