St. Maarten's Day Celebration in the Netherlands!

For the Dutch Caribbean community in the Netherlands, November 11th is a cherished occasion: St. Maarten's Day! While the vibrant festivities on the island itself are a sight to behold, we bring the spirit and warmth of SXM culture right here to the Netherlands.

St. Maarten's Day is a time to honor the unique heritage and enduring spirit of our beloved island. Across the Netherlands, you'll find gatherings, cultural events, and opportunities to connect with fellow St. Maarteners and share in the traditions. Think lively music, the delicious flavors of St. Maarten cuisine, and a strong sense of community pride.   

This day is about celebrating our resilience, our vibrant culture, and the special connection we maintain with our homeland, even from afar. It's a chance to share stories, reminisce about island life, and keep the spirit of St. Maarten alive in the hearts of the diaspora.   

Small Island Unity actively participates in and organizes events around St. Maarten's Day in the Netherlands, providing a platform to showcase our culture through music, food, and community gatherings. Stay connected with us to learn how you can join in the celebrations each November and experience the warmth and spirit of St. Maarten, right here in the Netherlands! #StMaartensDayNL #SXMNetherlands #CaribbeanCultureNL #Unity #Heritage #SIU
