Queen's Day is the always the last day of April except when the 30th falls on a Sunday, then it is the day before. The day of celebration is Queen Juliana's birthday. What a wild and fun celebration it is!

although in reality it's the birthday of the queen's mother... cause the queen was born 31st of january... and that would be a shitty day for parties!
all cold and rainy....

I spent 30 Apr 99 in Amsterdam on Queens Day.. it was a blast tho I did get caught up in the throng of people in the main streets.. and was swept along. Saw Blof live as well..
