More than 1,400 redheads (plus that bloke at the front in the green T-shirt) took part in the annual celebration, which has been going since 2005 and includes lectures, workshops and demonstrations aimed specifically at red-haired people.
"When people come together as redheads, they just look at each other," festival organiser Bart Rouwenhourst told the BBC. "They have a certain bond."
