John has many fans all over the world. In Holland we are united in 'The World Of John Denver'.
Once a year we celibrate the existance of the fanclub with our very special Denver-Days, which is more fun every year. There's a lot of singing involved, we have some pretty good singers in the fanclub who like to perform at these days. Some of them also record their own CD's and have their own concerts and their own YouTube channel. You'll find out more about them futher on this page.
Also once a year we have our video day, where we enjoy recorded performances of John all day long on a big screen. The place to be for the Denverday and the Videoday is the hostel Stay-Okay at Apeldoorn.

Every year there are also some special events, like concerts and radiospecials of the Dutch artists.

On this page you'll get a general overview of activities around John Denver in Holland. First, there are some videoclips from our Denverdays in the past, followed by links to YouTube clips of our Dutch artists. Then there is a listing of John Denver activities, both to come and from the past, and the page finishes with an overview of the concerts John did in Holland.
If you have any input to share, like events which are not mentioned, or pictures or soundclips, you're very welcome to share. Please mail me!

Most recent clips

This section especially for frequently returning visitors. It shows the clips from our Dutch Denverartists which were added the last two months or so. For a listing with my personal favorites per artist, please scroll up, or use the menu YouTube on top of the page. There you also find the links to the channels of the artists for a full listing.
You can also use the sections Denverdag and Playlists for a mixture of clips by our artists. Enjoy!
