FREEDOM MEAL

YOU WANT TO KNOW THIS

Are you considering organizing a Hague freedom meal in 2025, but would you like to know what this actually entails? Then take our handy manual. You will get inspiration from it and read what the most successful ingredients are for organizing a successful freedom meal.

SIGN UP

Are you ready to organize your own meal on May 5? Then sign up for the newsletter so we can keep you informed about the Hague Freedom Meals. From Monday December 9, you can officially register your meal and submit an application to the Vfonds for financial support. On to those eighty meals!

SPREAD THE WORD

To ensure that you can reach as many residents of The Hague as possible for your meal, we are happy to help you on your way with useful communication expressions. In the toolkit you will find images, ready-made texts and promotional material. The toolkit is still under development, but you will find it here as soon as it is available for 2025.

The first steps

WHAT DOES ORGANISING A FREEDOM MEAL INVOLVE?

Special encounters at the dinner table, bringing the neighborhood closer together and conversations about themes that you don't think about every day; freedom, lack of freedom, what does that mean in your life? With a freedom meal you expand your world. And are you organizing one? Then you are the driving force behind a new Hague tradition. And that brings - in addition to eternal fame - many grateful fellow citizens with it!

What do you get from us?
  • Materials kit including posters, invitations, image icons (dove), banners for the site and a manifesto full of promotional text and explanations that you can use.

  • After registering with the National Committee, you can request cans of soup, placemats, conversation cards and glasses.

  • Help, coaching and advice in planning your meal.

  • We are happy to connect you to other clubs and organizations.

  • We are organizing a kick-off meeting in early 2025 where you can meet all the co-organizers and get inspired.

  • A template to promote your Freedom Meal.

What do you organize yourself?
  • The location

  • The volunteers

  • The layout of your meal such as tables, benches and crockery

  • The meal: ask guests to bring a dish to share, serve the (freshly made) Freedom Soup or make a 3-course meal. You can make it as big or small as you want!

  • The guests at the table. Invite people to the table who do not know each other yet. How do you inform the people in your neighborhood?

  • Give your meal something extra with a performance or conversation starters. We are happy to help you with that.

Performance seeks Freedom Table

Are you a musician, artist, poet, artist or (theatre) maker and would you like to perform for your fellow citizens on Monday 5 May 2025? Let us know via info@haagsevrijheidsmaaltijden.nl . We will happily connect you to Vrijheidstafels that are looking for performances.
