Open to both Dutch and non-Dutch members, the Association fosters a vibrant community through a diverse programme of events and activities.
Whether you're looking to expand your network, stay connected to Dutch traditions, or simply make new friends, the Netherlands Association offers a welcoming home for the Dutch community in Hong Kong.
Monthly get-togethers at happening venues around town, to catch up, to network and to make friends. Typically at locations with a Dutch connection (e.g. a chef, manager or owner).
Monthly talks and city walks with focus on HK discovery, Chinese culture, the Netherlands today, history, architecture, travel and art by people with a good story. Special interest webinars about insights in property finance in the Netherlands, fiscal aspects about (re)-emigrating and retirement.
Parties such as King's Day, Welcome Back event, Mussel Dinner at the Yacht Club, Christmas drinks, and the lustrum Orange Ball.

Kids are more than welcome to participate and enjoy the pepernoten and bitterballen workshops, the Nieuwjaarsduik, hikes, ice skating and the sports clinics.
