Dutchlink In The Region presenteerd een gezellige oranje dag voor iedereen met een band met Nederland in de Illawarra. We vieren Koningsdag met een vrijmarkt, Nederlandse spelletjes en een ontspannen BYO picknick in de prachtige Illawarra Rhododendron & Rainforest Gardens.
Ideaal voor gezinnen, vrienden en liefhebbers van Nederlandse cultuur om elkaar te ontmoeten, bij te praten en samen Koningsdag te vieren.
Vrijmarkt: neem je eigen kleedje mee en breng Nederlandse spulletjes mee om te delen/verkopen (bijv. kinderspeelgoed, boeken, spelletjes, oranje artikelen) – net zoals op Koningsdag in Nederland!
Registratie is gratis (via Trybooking) maar toegang tot de Gardens is $5 pp aan de ingang voor onderhoud (kinderen gratis). Betaling kan cash of digitaal (bank transfer).
Iedereen met een band met Nederland is welkom – gezinnen, vrienden, partners en niet-Nederlandstaligen uiteraard ook.
We hopen je daar in oranje tinten terug te zien!
[ENGLISH]
Dutchlink In The Region invites you to a festive orange-themed day in the Illawarra! We celebrate Kings Day, with traditional Dutch games, a Flea market, music, and a relaxed BYO picnic in the beautiful Illawarra Rhododendron & Rainforest Gardens.
The Vrijmarkt (Flea Market)
Koningsdag is famous for its vrijmarkt (literally “free market”). A nationwide Dutch tradition where people sell, swap, or give away their pre-loved items, similar to a relaxed community garage sale. We invite everyone to take part in our Koningsdag vrijmarkt by bringing along your own used goods, especially Dutch items such as books, toys, games, or memorabilia. Simply bring a picnic rug to display your items and feel free to sell, trade, barter, or even gift them to a new home. It’s informal, fun, and very much in the spirit of Koningsdag.
The event itself is free but a $5 pp garden entry fee applies (children are free). Payment can be made at the gate (cash or bank transfer).
On-site parking is available at the venue.
