- The Ratha Yatra festival in The Hague is one of the Grandest Cultural Festival of the major festivals in the Benelux where Sri Jagannatha, Sri Baladeva, Srimati Subhadra Maharani and the whole Benelux congregation is present with more than 1000 visitors of different backgrounds. Everybody is intrigued by its pious atmosphere and energy. For events on this scale Sri Krishna Dhaam is working closely with the ISKCON centers in The Netherlands, ISKCON Radhadesh (Belgium) and some Hindu (youth) groups. The present Lords were personally installed by His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada.
