King's Day Free Market

Saturday April 30, 2022 from 13:00 till 18:00 hours
in and around The Dutch Church
 
  After two silent years the Netherlands organizations in the UK are joining forces again this year to celebrate a grand King's Day celebration.

On April 30 between 13:00 and 18:00 hours we will colour Austin Friars orange, and to get in the mood, our ambassador Karel van Oosterom will open the event with a word of welcome and of course we will sing the Wilhelmus.

There is a free market again and Old-Dutch games for the children. There is also a children's treasure hunt in the church and the creative ones among us can get started at the craft table.

There is also plenty to do for adults:
  • stroll along the stalls, the book market, enjoy Dutch herring, tompouces, poffertjes, French fries, croquettes, orange bitters and chilled Dutch beers;

  • join one of the guided tours through the church and take a look at the beautiful works of art, that will be auctioned on this day.
Visual artists can register to donate a work of art for the charity auction and the opportunity to show and sell their others worsk. If you are interested, please contact the Koning Willem Fonds on this email address hyperlink
