Amsterdam's Queen's Day is a yearly holiday that celebrates the Queen. Until 2013 it was on 30th April, but as from 2014 it is set on 27th April - actually this year is on 26th, as traditionally the celebrations are not held on Sundays. People will usually dress the national colours - mainly orange, but also red, white an blue, the flag colours. Festivities start the night before, and carry out through the day, many ending only the morning after.
