While the majority of them enjoyed the loud and drunken parties, others even took advantage of the free market concept. EM has the scoop.  <\/p>\n<p> German people are known to study hard, but they sure know how to party hard too. For Johanna Sch\u00fcttpelz it was the second Queensday experience and the nice weather made it quite a pleasant one. However, she had not expected so many people to turn up and missed out on the Slam FM party on the Java island, because they were too crowded. \u201cThe municipality should increase the number of events \u2013 and install more toilets too!\u201d<\/p>\n<p> <b>Unwelcome Change<\/b><\/p>\n<p> Johanna\u2019s suggestion probably will not be taken into consideration soon as the Amsterdam\u2019s mayor Eberhard van der Laan made sure that the <i>museumplein<\/i> would be deserted this year. According to Amsterdam Herald, van der Laan moved the large events out of the city centre due to complaining residents. Eko Rahmadian, an urban finance student, thinks that this move will decrease the enthusiasm and the number of tourists. <\/p>\n<p> <b>Best Day<\/b><\/p>\n<p> Having had a crazy party night and day himself, he says it is wonderful to see millions of people having fun together all wearing orange. \u201cIt\u2019s the best moment for Holland to be the most wanted country to visit on 30<sup>th <\/sup>of April and it should stay that way\u201d. <\/p>\n<p> <b>Free market and not-so-free water <\/b><\/p>\n<p> Shona Anderson, a Scottish student, seized the opportunity to set up a stall and sell her paintings on Queensday and was not disappointed. \u201cIt\u2019s a tough crowd to sell anything above 10 euros to, but it was a great experience\u201d. However, the party can be pricey; 13 euros to get into the Q-day festival which not so long ago used to be free, for some seems unreasonable. \u201cDespite it being 20+ degrees and thousands of people confined in a space, they still charged 5 euros for water \u2013 more than for beer! The government should be putting more control on companies like that\u201d. <b>MD<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t<div data-name=\"acf\/posts\" class=\"alignfull py-6 md:py-8 lg:py-10 bg-white\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"container-fixed\">\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"space-y-6 md:space-y-8\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"text-xl md:text-2xl\">Latest news<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t<ul data-component=\"post-grid\" class=\"grid items-stretch grid-cols-1 gap-2 md:gap-4 lg:gap-8 text-zoom-lg:grid-cols-1\n\t\t\n\t\tlg:grid-cols-3\n\t\t\">\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<li class=\"@container\">\n\t\t\t\t\n<div data-component=\"teaser-post\" class=\"block-theme-violet hidden lg:flex h-full relative flex bg-sand-300\n\tblock-theme-violet:bg-white block-theme-violet:text-purple block-theme-mocha:bg-sand-500 block-theme-mocha:text-brown\n\tblock-theme-sand:bg-sand-300 block-theme-sand:text-neutral-900\n\tblock-theme-violet:outline-purple-100 block-theme-violet:outline-1 block-theme-violet:outline-t-0\n\tflex-col @xl:flex-row\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"relative image:w-full image:aspect-video image:object-cover shrink-0 w-full @xl:w-1\/2\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/columnist-2026-1280x720.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1787584469\" class=\"attachment-video_xl size-video_xl\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/columnist-2026-1280x720.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1787584469 1280w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/columnist-2026-500x282.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1787584469 500w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/columnist-2026-832x468.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1787584469 832w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div class=\"flex flex-col gap-2 md:gap-4 p-4 @md:p-8 @xl:p-8 \">\n\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"text-md @sm:text-xl @md:text-2xl @xl:text-2xl\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/2026\/08\/26\/eur-student-en-schrijftalent-doe-mee-aan-onze-columnistenwedstrijd\/\" class=\"absolute-link text-current underline-offset-2 decoration-2 hocus:underline @md:decoration-3 @xl:decoration-4 inline-block\">\n\t\t\t\tAre you an EUR student gifted with writing talent?
