Prince Amadeiro has opened carnival in Oeteldonk amid great interest. At exactly 11.11 Amadeiro arrived on platform 1 to take his first step on the ‘stepping stone’ to loud cheers. This could be followed live on the Stationsplein and with that carnival 2023 was officially started in Oeteldonk.
A unique and unmissable moment is when Amadeiro and his retinue arrive at the Stationsplein via the escalator.
Prince Amadeiro XXVI hangs a kale wreath around the statuette of one of His ancestors, Amadeiro XVI. You then hear the Oeteldonks Volkslied and Prinsenlied and then Prince Amadeiro XXVI addresses his people.
