Easter in Amsterdam

Last year Easter came in March...with snow! Let's hope that this year's mid-April date means better weather. Amsterdammers have been preparing for their seasonal celebrations for weeks. If you're here for this holiday, you'll find plenty of traditional foods, family fun, decadent brunches and English-language church services. Or if the weather does cooperate, gather some delicious holiday treats from the bakeries and head to a park for a Paasdag picnic. Find out what other options you have for celebrating Easter in Amsterdam.
