April 27When
Amsterdam & nationwide, NetherlandsWhere it happens

The best time to attend Koningsdag in 2027 is April 27, 2027. Timing status: Dates confirmed.

On the king's birthday the whole country turns orange for a nationwide street party, and Amsterdam's canals fill with packed boats, free-market stalls and music. The city is euphoric and shoulder-to-shoulder; book a bed months out.
