The Dutch people are getting ready to celebrate one of the country’s biggest national occasions — King’s Day (Koningsdag) — on Monday, 27 April 2026.
This official holiday marks the birthday of King Willem-Alexander. On this day, the whole country turns orange, with people wearing orange outfits and filling the streets with celebrations.
This year, the King and his family are expected to visit Dokkum, where special cultural performances and music shows will take place.
The day is famous for: • Free street markets (Vrijmarkt) 🛍️
