About
On Prinsjesdag, the day the Dutch parliamentary year opens, King Willem-Alexander rides in the Glass Coach from Paleis Noordeinde to the Koninklijke Schouwburg, where he reads the King's speech (troonrede). Kids watch from the roadside as the coach and the royal procession pass. It suits kids happy to wait for a few minutes of spectacle, less so those who need constant action.
Where it is
Paleis Noordeinde
Noordeinde 68, 2514 GL Den Haag
