COVID-19 has been around for quite a while at this point, and Tuesday will mark the second King’s Day in a row that the Netherlands has had to celebrate in Lockdown. 

While there are fewer restrictions in place now than there were last year, there are a number of coronavirus-proof ways to celebrate the iconic Dutch day. There are definitely ways that you can make the most out of a lockdown King’s Day - and this video is here to remind you how!

Enjoying another Koningsdag in lockdown 

Don’t let it get you down - just because you can’t go out and celebrate in the way you normally would doesn’t mean you can’t still enjoy the public holiday! Whether you’re at home with family or housemates, or if you’re stuck by yourself, remember that this is a day filled with joy and celebration - so have fun!

What have you got planned for King's Day 2021? Will you celebrate, or just treat it as any other day?
