Amsterdam Light Festival: Heated Cruise with Hot Drinks & Bite
Overview
Sail with us through the canals of Amsterdam and admire the impressive light art of the 14th edition of the Amsterdam Light Festival. This year’s theme, Legacy, invites artists from around the world to reflect on what we preserve and what we pass on to future generations.
During this 75-minute cruise, you will encounter more than 20 light artworks that transform the city into an open-air art festival.
Experience it from a classic, luxurious saloon boat while enjoying drinks such as wine, mulled wine, beer, hot chocolate, or soft drinks. If you choose the unlimited drinks option, you’ll enjoy all of these beverages without limits, along with your choice of a fresh stroopwafel or a portion of salted snacks to complete the experience.
Step aboard, admire the illuminated canals, and be part of an inspiring celebration of light, art, and the stories that connect us.
