Find the perfect experience in a few steps
Start overCheers on the Plein
The Plein is famous for its lively terraces, even politicians come here for a drink. Find a cosy terrace, order something festive and take a photo of the official toast. To the guest of honour!
Hague local wanted
Convince a random local (a Hagenaar or Hagenees) to share one fun or unknown fact about the city. Take a photo with your impromptu city guide and remember the fact.
Hofvijver pose
The Hofvijver pond with the Binnenhof reflected in it is one of the iconic images of the Netherlands. Find a good spot at the water and take a polished group photo with the Mauritshuis tower or the Binnenhof facades in frame.
Hollandse Nieuwe
The Scheveningen coast calls for a real Dutch herring or a portion of kibbeling. Buy a fish, take a bite (do you dare to eat it the proper Dutch way, holding it by the tail?) and take a photo of the whole team in action.
Kick-off in the royal city
The party starts! Find a typical Hague backdrop (a canal, a stately building, the Plein square) and take a group photo where everyone jumps in the air at the same time with the guest of honour in the middle. Everyone off the ground, otherwise it does not count.
Madurodam giants
The Hague is known for Madurodam, the miniature Netherlands. Flip it around: find a small object on the street (a bollard, a planter, a bicycle bell) and take a photo where you appear to walk over it as giants, as if you yourselves are inside Madurodam.
Peace & friendship
No room for arguments in front of the Peace Palace gates. Take a group photo where everyone hugs each other or makes the peace sign, with the palace clearly behind you.
Royal city coronation
Today the guest of honour is royalty in the royal city. Crown them with a sash, tiara or other festive accessory and take a photo of the official coronation, ideally in front of a stately Hague building or palace.
Spotlight in the royal city
The final challenge! Find a beautiful Hague spot (the Hofvijver, the pier, the Plein) and take a great closing group photo with the guest of honour at the centre and a true Hague backdrop. A photo for the ages, well done everyone!
The sea breeze pose
There is always wind on the Scheveningen Pier. Take a group photo where everyone poses against the wind, hair flying, with the North Sea clearly behind you.
