King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima, together with Princess Ariane, traveled to Kansas in the United States to support both the Dutch national team and Curaçao’s national team, The Blue Wave. A former island of the Netherlands Antilles, Curaçao is now an autonomous country within the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
On June 20, 2026, King Willem-Alexander, Queen Máxima, and Princess Ariane attended the 2026 FIFA World Cup Group E match between Ecuador and Curaçao at Kansas City Stadium in Kansas City. After the match, the Royal Family visited the Curaçao locker room to congratulate the team on earning their historic first-ever World Cup point.

Good sports to travel from Houston to Kansas straight after the match NL-SE in order to support Curacao on the same day as well (and all this more or less immediately ater their arrival in the U.S.A.).
ردحذفYes, agreed. Very commendable of them.

Great to see them supporting both teams and both, in their different ways, getting positive results . And Queen Maxima has an interest in how the Argentinians do as well
حذفKansas city stadium is actually in Missouri. Picture 6 is the King and Queen with the Missouri Governor and his wife.

No Royal family in Europe like this!!! Love it very much…they are so normal and beautiful! A normal football shirt as a queen…. Lovely
ردحذفI would say there are several, not least the Danish and the Swedish families.
حذف@11.17 not like this. They are stiff and not very low key…
حذفHet filmpje hiervan is echt hilarisch, een hossende koning, die weer eens moeilijk uit z'n woorden kan komen.
ردحذفEn daarmee wordt bejubeld in buitenlandse media. Heerlijk om te zien dat het niet allemaal volgens protocol hoeft en toch voor enorme populariteit zorgt. Love it!
حذفWrite this comment in English so everybody knows you are ALWAYS negative about the Dutch royals. A shame.
ردحذفYes that is so true! She likes to be negative…
حذفSportsmanship and happiness abounds. They wear the country's colors proudly. Last photo is so cute of the 3 of them!
ردحذفWell said agree with you
حذفFirst Houston than Kansas, what is next. Sport loving family. They must have had great fun.

They never miss a party.
ردحذفC’est un réel plaisir de voir la princesse Ariane accompagner ses parents dans un esprit sportif !
ردحذفHi! I just wanted to say that the stadium is not in Kansas, but Missouri. For some stupid reason, we have Kansas City, Kansas and Kansas City, Missouri. They are two different cities and though the State line between the two States is close to each other, they are both in different States. Stupid I know, but the stadium is: Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri.
