Dear Madam/Sir:

On behalf of the International Talent Community Utrecht and the Expats Utrecht Facebook group, we would like to invite you to our Royal Welcome Event on the 27th of April.

April 27th is the King’s official birthday. Each year, this is celebrated with parties, street markets, concerts and special events. We would like to introduce you and other newcomers to the Utrecht Region to celebrate this Dutch tradition with us. This is an opportunity for you to experience a characteristic boat tour through the historic canals of Utrecht, get a taste of the Dutch cuisine, and meet fellow internationals new to this region. We will have an exclusive spot on the wharf where you can view the passing boats!

Programme

13:30-15:45

Drinks and bites at the wharf cellar 'Grote Catacomben,' traditional Dutch games.

Boat cruise through the canals of Utrecht. Bring your own food and drinks (no strong liquor allowed).
