The Consulate of the Netherlands in Los Angeles and the United Netherlands Organizations (UNO) of SoCal, together with the local Dutch community, will bring you a great celebration of Dutch Queen’s Day in Southern California!

The official Queens Day in the Netherlands is on Tuesday April 30. Yup, that’s a weekday, and therefore we celebrate Queens Day on April 28 in LA! >> What to expect? Celebrate Queens Day in a Dutch village that is a showcase of Dutch tradition, including: * Dutch foods like cheese and a whole range of other delicacies * Dutch beer * tulips, and more flowers * a flea market / vrijmarkt * kids games * exhibitions * arts and crafts * performances & dances * live music by Dutch talent * and much more. All people of Southern California are invited to join in this memorable family-friendly celebration. The 2012 event was attended by more than 3000 people, who came from Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Phoenix and more. >> What is Queens Day?! On Queens Day The Dutch celebrate the birthday of her Majesty Queen Beatrix. The monarchy was established in 1815, and King William I was its first ruler. Queen Beatrix has been the reigning monarch of the Kingdom of the Netherlands for over 30 years, succeeding her mother Queen Juliana. It’s going to be a very special day this year, as Queen Beatrix will abdicate her throne to make way for her son Prince Willem-Alexander on April 30.
