Visitors planning to watch the Canal Parade in Amsterdam this Saturday can look forward to warm and mostly dry weather conditions.
Forecasts from the national meteorological institute, the KNMI, indicate that afternoon temperatures will reach around 25 degrees Celsius along the city’s waterways.
A cool start and afternoon warmth
The day is expected to start off somewhat cool at roughly 14 degrees Celsius in the morning hours.
As the afternoon progresses, temperatures will rise steadily while a light breeze should keep conditions comfortable for crowds standing beside the canals.
Sunlight will be regular throughout the day, though the rain risk remains low for the duration of the event.
Sun protection recommended
With a forecasted UV index of 6, authorities and forecasters advise attendees to apply sunscreen regularly.
The annual parade draws hundreds of thousands of spectators to the historic center, filling the embankments along the official route.
Those traveling into the city are encouraged to plan ahead, as public transport operator GVB and national rail services typically adjust schedules to manage the high volume of visitors.
