Various Companies Offer Festival Tours To Lively King's Day Celebrations in Amsterdam

Kings Day in Amsterdam
By FOMO Girl
Late April is a great time to visit Amsterdam, the Netherlands' capital, since this is when their annual King's Day celebration takes place. Originally known as Queen's Day, when the reigning monarch was female, this exciting holiday is normally held between April 25-27th and is celebrated with a citywide street party. Visitors will find several tour companies offering festivals travel tours that will provide them with a memorable experience of this dutch holiday.

This local tradition began in August 1885 to honor the birth of Queen Wilhelmina, and continued as an annual event after her daughter, Juliana, and grand-daughter, Beatrix succeeded her, only the date was changed to April. In 2014, the name of this holiday was officially changed to King's Day, as a male monarch, King Willem-Alexander took over the throne.

Even though the name of this holiday has changed, it still maintains the same festive spirit, with both locals and visitors to the city dressed fully in orange, the color that symbolizes the royal family of the Netherlands, the House of Orange-Nassau. The royals themselves take part in the celebration by visiting a different town or city each year.

The entire city of Amsterdam becomes a giant flea market at this time, with people setting up tables throughout the streets and parks where they can sell pretty much anything new or used. There are also tons of food stalls offering a wide selection of tasty things to eat, with pubs packed with lively folks, and music fills the air from bands and DJs playing their tunes. Families with kids can enjoy sporting events, face-painting, street buskers, and much more.

Although it is considered a public holiday, King's Day is by no means a day of rest. The festivities kick off the night before the big day, and continue through until the next day. The party isn't limited to the streets and parks alone, but it also takes place on the water, as colorfully, decorated boats line the waterways of the Amsterdam canal system. Spectators, who aren't on the boats, typically line up along the bridges just to watch.

Ibiza Party Trips Travel Information
By FOMO GIrl
Ibiza is a Mediterranean island located off the eastern coast of Spain. The island is known worldwide for its rambunctious summer nightclub scene and its contributions to the electronic dance music industry. This makes it a popular vacation destination with young adults who seek party tours to Ibiza.

During the summer, Ibiza Town and San Antonio attract thousands of tourists who want to be part of the biggest and most raucous party scene on the planet. Privilege, Space, Amnesia, Pacha, and other well-known clubs attract throngs of visitors with performances by the world's most popular producers and DJs. Many electronic dance masters choose this atmosphere to launch their newest creations in the techno, trance, and house music genres.

Opening parties for the season typically take place at the end of May, while closing parties are held during the first weekend in October. The island is known for its tolerance of provocative behavior by its tourists, which makes it a popular place for young singles and couples who have a desire to take a walk on the wild side. In addition to hitting up the many nightclubs, tourists can enjoy underground music parties featuring international artists.

All inclusive weekend excursions to Ibiza by Stoke Travel include optional ferry trips throughout the summer season. Guests enjoy rooms in a seaside resort, three buffet meals per day, and an open snack bar. The poolside bar serves up open drinks from 11 am until 11 pm and guests receive discounted club entry tickets as well. Stoke Travel also offers special packages for closing weekend as the summer comes to an end with the final parties of the season.

Busabout's four-day Ibiza Blast tour includes ferry trips between the island and Valencia, guided orientation, hotel room, and three buffet breakfasts. Also included are a DJ sunset cruise, discounted tickets to nightclubs, and a day trip to the nearby island of Formentera. The Busabout Ibiza Island Hopper package is eight days with stops in Mallorca and Menorca.

2wentys Ibiza packages include accommodations in hotels catering to the party crowds. Guests enjoy pool parties with live music by top DJs, a complimentary party pack upon arrival, free Wi-Fi, an exclusive bar crawl, and more. Holiday reps offer insider information about the best places to eat, drink, and party.

Club 18-30 operates affordable youth tours to the island that include airfare and hotel accommodations. Packages to San Antonio offer 4 to 14 night stays at Apolo Studies. This hotel is approximately 750 m from the beach and within a half hour walking distance to exciting nightlife venues at the West End. Similar packages offer rooms at Hotel Brisa, also at San Antonio Bay and even closer to the beach.

While Ibiza is known best for its party atmosphere, there are plenty of other things to do for those who do venture out while the sun is still up. Sports enthusiasts can enjoy cycling, golf, horseback riding, diving, and hiking. Shoppers will find a wide range of shopping centers and street markets selling the latest fashions and other products.
