Steve Aoki, Playing Kings Day Festival, Olympic Arena, 30th April

What to do during Queen's Day, Tuesday 30th April 2013

There are literally hundreds of parties and events going on all over Amsterdam during Queen's Day.

One of the most concise summaries can be found on the iamsterdam.com site

An event that is bound to be amazing is the King’s Day Festival at the Olympic Stadium.  You can buy tickets here, but there are only a few left by the looks of it

Following the success of last year’s QDAY Festival, Apenkooi, GirlsLoveDJs and Valtifest once again join forces for the King’s Day Festival. Featuring a monumental line-up including Boys Noize, Steve Aoki, Joris Voorn and Dr Lectroluv! 11:00 - 22:30, tickets: 27.50 euros.

You have got to see Steve Aoki if you get the chance...

Queens Day 2013: What is Queens Day?

There was Once-Upon-A-Time a Queen called Wilhelmina

Willy had a daughter called Juliana who was actually born on 30th April 1909

Konninginnedag or Queen's Day has been celebrated on 30th April ever since in accordance with lovely Juliana's birthday

The current Queen (and the lady who decided to retain 30th April as Queen's Day in honour of her mother) is Queen Beatrix                               Queen Beatrix>>>>>

However (and this is where it gets exciting) THIS YEAR will also mark the official abdication of Queen Beatrix

Her eldest son Willem-Alexander, currently His Royal Highness the Prince of Orange will become King Willem-Alexander. His spouse, Her Royal Highness Princess Máxima of the Netherlands will become Queen Máxima. 

King Willem-Alexander will be the nation’s first king since 1890 and will be 46 years old when he ascends to the throne.
