Dutch Royal Family celebrates Koningsdag 2025 in Doetinchem
On Saturday, King Willem-Alexander celebrated his 58th birthday a day early! Koningsdag is usually celebrated in a Dutch city and this year it was in Doetinchem.
The Royal Family was welcomed in Doetinchem by the Mayor before watching performances by several groups from the region on the Mark Tennantplantsoen.
Afterward, the Royal Family met with various chefs and farmers from the Achterhoek region to learn more about their fresh produce.

They also joined sports icons from the region in a quiz about the Achterhoek region. Queen Maxima’s team won the quiz and Queen Maxima scored the winning penalty.
Then, the Royal Family saw the artwork 'The Hamburgerpoort', which is a reminder of one of the four city gates that were bombed during the Second World War.
