Leidens Ontzet and Prinsjesdag in South Holland

In South Holland, Leiden observes the Relief of Leiden (Leidens Ontzet) on 3 October, celebrating the lifting of the 1574 Spanish siege with the traditional distribution of herring and white bread (haring en wittebrood) and hutspot.

In The Hague, the third Tuesday of September marks Prinsjesdag (Prince's Day), featuring the royal procession in the Glass Coach and the Speech from the Throne. School holiday schedules are determined under the national three-zone distribution system, with the province following the Central region.
