Dutch Kingsday Night: The Orange Party “Koningsnacht” (SF)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Yes once a year we Dutchies celebrate the birthday of the King of the Netherlands and we do this by putting on orange clothes as our King William last name is “van Oranje” or from Orange yes it is original as Oranges are from Spain. Either way we have celebrated through 3 Queensdays for over 4 decaces but now we have a king and instead of Queensday it is Kingsday and during the day people sell their used toys and there are markets all over Holland where the common man can sell & trade goods without paying taxing. yes our King is nice.

Then at Night all the bands and there are DJ’s playing on every market and yes Holland still has the most renowned DJ’s in the World including our own DJ Marc van Brabant who is from the Province Brabant that has brought our best dj’s such as Sander van Doorn, Tiesto, Dannic, R3hab, and so many more!

What to expect Music Wise, as usual we try to encompass a true dutch Bar feeling where you can talk about the old cows out of the creek and drink a couple of beers but then like any good dutch Pubs it will play some cool classic dutch Pub songs which is not limited to the Godfather of Pub Music Andre Hazes and now is continued by his son! Also we will be Nostalgic and play old the classic Dutch music from the 80’s and 90’s and even the Kaas music or Cheesy Music as did you know the Venga Boys were from Holland. So are the 2 brothers on the 4th floor and 2 unlimited and so many. more. Yes even some Dutch Rock yes the Van Halen brothers were born in Nijmegen and we all know twilight zone and radar love by our own Dutch Rock band Golden Earing.

Besides the 80’s and 90 Dutch Music includes our own ska band Doemaar and some great rock songs sang in Dutch such as Van Dikhout, DeDijk, en Acda & Munnik then we have some of the best fun music and there a ton of 1 hit wonders that people did not even know there were dutch.
