Here\u2019s what you probably know about Amsterdam: beautiful canals boast lights that twinkle at night. The city is home to an abundance of “coffee shops”<\/a> with names like Smoke Palace<\/em> and Grey Area<\/em>. And, no matter which way you look, you can spot residents whizzing around on bikes, living on houseboats, and munching on raw herring. What you probably don\u2019t<\/em> know is that the Amsterdam hosts the world\u2019s biggest birthday bash, King\u2019s Day<\/a> \u2014 or Koningsdag\u2014<\/em> an enochlophob\u2019s worst nightmare and a day for the Dutch to seriously cut loose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This annual public holiday takes place on the 27th<\/sup> of April, but is by no means a day of rest. The festivities kick off the evening before and you can see locals and visitors whoop it up until sunrise. Just as impressive are the fun-loving crowds that flock to the city for the main event. Wigged and flaunting novelty hats, they’ve come to revel in open-air concerts, performances, pop-up bars, and an enormous, unregulated flea market. Everyone\u2019s invited to join in, as long as you adhere to the dress code: orange.

The history of King’s Day in Holland<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The world\u2019s noisiest birthday bash was inaugurated on the 31st<\/sup> of August, 1891 on Queen Wilhelmina\u2019s birth date. In later years it was held on April 30th<\/sup> in honor of former monarchs Queen Juliana and her daughter Beatrix. It wasn\u2019t until 2013, the year of King Willem Alexander\u2019s succession to the throne, that Queens Day became King\u2019s Day and was celebrated on the 27th. Although the exact dates to celebrate King\/Queens Day have changed, one thing has remained the same: the enormity of this thumping street party is nothing short of sensational.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The party starts the night before with Koningsnacht<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The fun starts the evening before \u2014a night known as Koningsnacht\u2014<\/em> with clubs and live music venues hosting large-scale parties and events. While many clubbers will carry on partying throughout the night, some head home for a few hours\u2019 kip to recharge their batteries for the main event. It’s a case of “you snooze, you lose\u201d on King\u2019s Night, so make sure you get your tickets in advance. In fact, many early bird tickets sell out as soon as February.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Europe’s biggest street party<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

From open-air DJ performances that attract thousands to acoustic sessions in intimate cafes, there\u2019s bound to be an event going on somewhere with your name on it. In fact, it\u2019s hard to not<\/em> be in the right place at the right time, as you\u2019ll find sound systems and beer vendors on every corner. Even bars outside of the centre will see revellers spilling out onto the streets, spreading their happy vibes all over the city. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Putting the rest of Europe’s festivals<\/a> to shame, between 600,000 and a million people flock to Amsterdam each year to celebrate King\u2019s Day (a whopping 250,0000 people arrive by train alone). The answer to the question where a diminutive city like Amsterdam puts these swarms of orange-clad party-heads is simple: everywhere. Tens of thousands of face-painted locals and visitors take over the streets, squares, canals, balconies, and terraces to dance, wave flags, and drink beer from plastic cups.

If streets are too crowded, take it to the water<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While bagging a spot on a barge is of course awesome, taking in the fist-pumping masses from dry land is just as entertaining. The corner of the Prinsengracht and Amstelveld is a prime spot to watch King\u2019s Day boats go by, as are any one of Amsterdam\u2019s 1,200 bridges.

Dig into traditional Dutch cuisine<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Waving a can of beer around while wedged between a hundred other people or dancing your socks off in the middle of Amsterdam\u2019s iconic Dam Square is hungry work. Luckily, finding something to snack on will be as easy as, well, Dutch apple pie. Hundreds of street food vendors line the city\u2019s streets and squares selling everything from juicy hamburgers to the quintessential \u2018broodjes kaas<\/a>\u2019 (cheese sandwiches). Those with a sweet tooth should definitely sample a \u2018tompouce<\/a>,\u2019 a typical Dutch pastry stuffed with yellow cream (which inevitably ends up on the tip of your nose) and decorated with orange icing.

Hit up the vrijmarkt<\/em>: King’s Day unruly flea market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Bargain hunt your way across Amsterdam as the city turns into a mega flea market as part of the festivities. The \u2018vrijmarkt\u2019 (free market) is a deliciously rustic affair with some sellers working off stalls but most displaying their treasures on a tarp on the pavement. In fact, people reserve \u2018their\u2019 patch days before by chalking up the word BEZET (occupied) in the middle of their self-appointed rectangle. Hawkers range from kids selling wild-haired Barbie dolls to grown-ups touting antiques and sixties fashion. Whether you\u2019re on the lookout for something particular or just browsing, I dare anyone to come away empty handed.

Wear a sh*t ton of orange<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"King's

\u2018Oranjegekte\u2019<\/a> is an actual expression and translates to \u2018orange madness.\u2019 Anything orange is worn on King\u2019s Day as a show of pride for the House of Orange-Nassau, the Dutch royal family. Party animals turn their closets upside down or raid local charity shops for clothes and accessories. Score extra Kings Day points by wearing tangerine coloured wigs and\/or face paint. Let\u2019s put it this way: the wackier the result, the better. And if you\u2019re worried you\u2019ll look like a clown (or clown fish) don\u2019t be, so will over a million other people.
