SUMMARY:Light Festival Amsterdam
DESCRIPTION:Light Festival Amsterdam\n\n\n\nThe Light Festival Amsterdam is a unique event in the canal district of Amsterdam. From 26 November 2026 to 17 January 2027\, you can admire many beautiful works of light art on\, above and along the Amsterdam canals.

It is the anniversary edition: fifteen years of light art on the canals. The works can be seen for free from the quays and the bridges\, but they are made to be looked at from the water\, which is why the festival cruises sell out first. \n\n\n\nEditionThe 15th — the anniversary editionDates26 November 2026 to 17 January 2027CostFree to see from the quays and bridgesBest way to see itBy boat. The works are placed and lit for a view from the waterThemeNot yet announced by the organisersRouteNot yet published for edition 15\n\n\n\nA word of caution about what you will read elsewhere: several guides already list a number of artworks\, a route length and a theme for this edition. None of that comes from the organisers\, who state only that more information will follow. We will update this page as soon as they publish. \n\n\n\nAmsterdam Light Festival Cruises\n\n\n\nLight Festival Cruises\n\n\n\nDuring the Light Festival\, special canal cruises sail through Amsterdam’s canals.
