Backpack safety

We’re thinking of camping in Amsterdam for four nights in July and I’m concerned about leaving our backpacks in the tent while we’re out visiting the city during the day. Should I be worried about having our stuff stolen? We don’t plan on leaving anything valuable in the tent and we’ve never had any issues while camping here in the US but I guess it doesn’t hurt to ask…
Thanks!
I am leaving from Miami, FL with $2100 for 23 days

personally I would not leave my bags in my tent. I would probably find a locker at a train station or something and leave them there. As a rule of thumb, you can expect your bags to be stolen if they are not with you or locked up…

I have camped all over Europe (not in Amsterdam though), always leave my bag in my tent (nothing valuable, off course) and except for one time at a music festival in Leipzig (gave my camera to my sister, she left it in her tent, then it got stolen), I have never had anything stolen. Who would want to steal your dirty clothes anyway?
