Dutch King's Day 2026 @ Zürichsee

Join us on Saturday, 25th of April, 2026 @ 17:45h for a fun and festive orange evening on the "MS Hollandia" to celebrate the Dutch King's Day whilst floating on the Zürichsee! Like last year, it will likely be insane (again), but this time we’ll turn it into an even bigger boat party 🥳 🥂 🛳️ 

The ticket includes a 4-hour boat ride, yummy Dutch snacks, unlimited (alcoholic) drinks and unprecedentedly bad Dutch karaoke classics you never want to hear again in your life...

Only rule on the boat is to bring good vibes and a mandatory orange shirt / NL-related outfit.

To think about:

• You may only buy a ticket if your swimming skills are at least Diploma B worthy.

• Please be at the pier no later than 17:45h sharp (Pier 6). The boat will leave at exactly 18:00h from the most outer-left dock at the Bürkliplatz port when facing the Zürichsee. There will be no room to delay sail-out from the port. Hence, if you miss the boat there will be no other opportunity to jump on and/or to get your ticket purchase back.

• Bring seasickness pills in case you are sensitive to this (although fyi in previous years there were no cases of seasickness/bad experiences with this).

• If you are vegan you might want to bring some additional snacks with you.

• In case of an emergency you can contact Berend or Noor by mobile phone.

We very much look forward to welcoming you on the Dutch King's Day Boat on the 25th of April - it's going to be an awesome evening(!)

Cheers,
The Dutch King's Org Team
