The Harbour Birthday Festival in Hamburg is one of the biggest harbour festivals in the world. The show takes place not only on the water, but also on the land and in the air.

The festival stretches a “colourful mile” (from the Baumwall to Altona Fish Market) with many stalls offering local culinary specialities, shows and entertainment. The days end around 10pm with the lighting of the magical ‘Harbour Lights’.
