Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands announces abdication: 2014 and onwards; Koningsdag instead of Koninginnedag

Photobucket
From 2014 onwards, Koningsdag (King's Day) will be celebrated on 27 April, the birthday of HRH the Prince of Orange and the future HM King Willem-Alexander. In 2014 it will be celebrated by the Royal Family in Amstelveen and De Rijp on 26 April, because April 27 is on Sunday.

During the reign of HM Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands, Koninginnedag (Queen's Day) was held on 30 April, the day of her inauguration.
