- On April 30 and May, there is an official public holiday. Except all banks, government offices, and most of the stores on the Dutch side will remain closed. Also, there will be only a few buses available on the road.
- As there is a Grand Parade on April 30, roads in and out of Philipsburg will remain close from 10 am. So, in case, anyone coming from the Simpson Bay area to experience the parade, it is necessary to know that one will not get the access to Philipsburg through usual roads.
- As there will be a hot sunny day and one will have to stand in the sun to experience the parade. So, one should be in comfortable and light clothes wearing sunglasses, hat and sunscreen.
