King’s Day | Das Boat: Royal Mischief

Event details

Das Boot 2025: Royal Mischief
During King’s Day, we indulge in a touch of royal mischief. Royal, because, just like the royals, we rule Amsterdam’s canals for a day. But not through traditional suppression… no, we rule through musically driven crowd control.

We gently force our subjects (aka the spectators) to let loose: hypnotised by our beats and rhythms, blasted through a professional 10,000-watt hi-fi system. The royals on board Das Boot on the other hand are in control and feel what it is like to genuinely rule for a day.

Mischief equates playful misbehaviour: and that’s our motto.
Beyond the reach of everyday social norms, we inspire the masses to bend the rules towards playfulness and indulgence. Join our fascination for a dogma-free mindset and surrender to to allow a sense of ultimate in-the-moment-happiness! Let’s rule the rules like the royals used to.

Think: nonstop bangers at 10,000 watts, free drinks and tasty bites all included.

What madness have we seen on previous editions of Das Boot? Oh, just a few highlights…

  • People falling off the boat
  • Sinking (but the band kept playing)
  • Police confiscating sound equipment
  • Strangers being kidnapped (in a fun way)
  • Police confiscating… other things
  • Relationships ended: and others begun
  • Entire parts of the city dancing to our music (standard)
  • Always sunshine. And if not: still sunshine

Practical:

We take care of an abundance of drinks (wine beer gin tonic cola and lots of water), some bites (nothing fancy), a boat and most important 10.000W of music.

• We gather at Nereus (Amsteldijk 130A) on Saturday 26 April at 12:00.
Be on time: we won’t wait, and due to canal chaos, we cannot pick you up later.

Dress for the weather. You can hop off if you really must—but we’d love for you to ride with us until the end… whenever that may be 😉

• Yes, we’ll sail slowly. Yes, we’ll stop a few times so you can… relieve yourself of excessive joy.

• We only have 45 spots, and more people want in than we can fit, so don’t wait!

Bonus: Das Boot has been fully refurbished this year, so unlike last time, sinking is not on the program. We’re better than ever.
