On April 30, Crown-Prince Willem-Alexander will become the new Dutch King - and as part of the celebrations, we’re joining forces with the the national committee organising the coronation, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, to allow the estimated 750,000 Dutch who are out of the country enjoy the festivities.
Want to send your best wishes to the new King? Go to wenswereldwijd.nl and send a photo or short message. Dutch celebrities including DJ Armin van Buuren , cyclist Thomas Dekker , sprinter Churandy Martina and conductor Jaap van Zweden have already have participated.
We expect strong interest around the globe with countries in royal families. Non Dutch speakers can post a wish through the English version of the website, available at wishesworldwide.com . Dutch public broadcaster NOS has made it possible for us to show a live stream of the festivities through the Royal YouTube Channel .
In collaboration with Dutch embassies, we’re also organising a series of Google+ Hangouts . which can be viewed online via YouTube and other websites, including MijnDroomVoorOnsLand.nl . The Hangouts will also be on display on 13 large television screens in city centers installed by KPN across the Netherlands.
And if you want to enjoy the festivities together with friends and family around the world, you can of course invite them to watch the coronation via Hangout .
