April 27th is the Netherlands’ King’s Day (Koningsdag)

Explanation:: The Netherlands doesn’t have an official Flag Day, but April 27—King’s Day—is the biggest national holiday when the red-white-blue tricolour waves across the country. It celebrates King Willem-Alexander’s birthday (born April 27, 1967), a tradition from Princess Day in 1885 and Queen’s Day later. The flag, fixed on February 19, 1937, swapped orange for red from the 17th-century Statenvlag for practical reasons. Amsterdam buzzes with orange outfits, but the tricolour flies on buildings—often with an orange pennant—alongside markets and boat parades. It’s a public holiday.
