Holland America Line is introducing a new “Dutch Day” experience featuring special menus, treats, and activities to celebrate its Dutch heritage.

The Centerpiece: Dutch Dinner and Treats

• A themed Dutch Dinner will be served once per cruise in the main dining room, featuring classic and contemporary Dutch dishes like shrimp cocktail, pea soup, and Dover sole.
• The Lido Market will also offer some of these dishes.
• Passengers can enjoy fresh-made poffertjes (small, fluffy pancakes) daily at Crow’s Nest Café for a fee.
• In collaboration with Daelmans Stroopwafel, a popular Dutch bakery, the cruise line will feature special desserts like Stroopwafel Cheesecake and Stroopwafel Napoleon.
• Guests will receive a Daelmans Stroopwafel as a turn-down treat instead of the usual chocolate.

Orange Party

• The popular Orange Party, featuring live music, orange-themed cocktails, and Dutch snacks, will be held on Dutch Day.
• Passengers are encouraged to wear orange to celebrate the Dutch Royal Family (House of Orange).

Dutch Day reflects Holland America Line’s commitment to offering immersive cultural experiences to its passengers.
