Amsterdam is known for its canals, which is why the biggest parties and events are held on the water. Like the Gay Pride Canal Parade, Koningsdag, Amsterdam Light Festival and Sail 2025. These festivals and events can also be viewed from the shore but with a boat on the water gives a whole other dimension.
These days are always very popular and therefore fill up quickly. Should you want to sail on one of these days, make sure you get there on time!
