Are you new to The Hague and curious to meet other newcomers? The Hague International Centre is organising a special edition of its Welcome to The Hague event on Thursday 26 November 2026, offering an engaging evening of activities, practical information and opportunities to meet fellow internationals.
This edition is part of Praat Nederlands Day, a nationwide initiative encouraging internationals to practise Dutch in a fun, welcoming and informal setting.
While Welcome to The Hague remains an opportunity to connect with other newcomers and learn more about life in the city, this special edition will also include activities designed to help participants practise their Dutch. Don’t worry if your Dutch is still limited. The idea is simply to have fun, give it a try and build confidence along the way.
The event takes place at The Fiddler, a traditional English pub in the centre of The Hague and a welcoming setting for a pub quiz.
Organised by The Hague International Centre together with its partner At Home Abroad, the evening will give participants an opportunity to test their knowledge of life in the Netherlands while meeting fellow internationals.
As part of Praat Nederlands Day, the programme includes Meet & Mingle Bingo and a Dutch Culture Pub Quiz.
Drinks and snacks will be provided by the organisers.
Registration is required. For catering purposes, The Hague International Centre asks everyone attending to register individually, including children.
