Amsterdam's flamboyant, anything-goes dance festival in the Westerpark — the queer festival the whole city turns up to.
Milkshake is a two-day festival in Amsterdam's Westerpark with a dozen stages, a dress-up culture that outdoes most Prides, and a crowd that is deliberately mixed: queer at its core, everyone welcome. It usually lands on the last weekend of July, a week before Pride Amsterdam, so a lot of people make a fortnight of it.
