Carnival in Maastricht, the Netherlands
The Zaate Herremenie (Limburgish (Maastrichtian variant) for: drunken orchestra) is a carnival that takes place in the city of Maastricht in the Netherlands.
Modern history
In 1958, Dr John Hoenen introduced a group musicians to the parade, and a tradition of pushing a pram filled with beer. In 1959, this group was named "Zaate Herremenie" by the citizens of Maastricht. In the early 1960s the name was altered to "De Zaate Herremenie 1959".
