Amsterdam Light Festival Cruises
On 30 November 2023, the 12th edition of the most beautiful festival of lights of the year gets underway in Amsterdam. This edition has the theme Technology and AI, with which the festival will explore the accelerated use of both in our everyday lives. Technology and Artificial Intelligence affect how we communicate, socialize and create.
This year the light show includes brand new light art, chosen specifically for this event. The Amsterdam Light Festival artworks will be exhibited throughout winter in and around the canals of Amsterdam. The magical play between light and water can be seen from the quayside but is even more beautiful from a canal boat.

This year the best way to enjoy the festival is back: the Amsterdam Light Festival cruise. The Amsterdam Light Festival water route takes you on an almost 6 km long cruise through the Weesperbuurt en Plantage borough of the city.
What's more magical than enjoying a comfortable cruise through the canals of Amsterdam in the dark winter months? Enjoying a cruise during the Amsterdam Light Festival of course! Every evening the artwork will light up, and you can see this beautiful exhibition from a canal boat. Together with Lovers Canal Cruises, we offers three types of Amsterdam Light Festival cruises that will let you appreciate the festival at its best. The most famous and popular Amsterdam Light Festival cruise departs from Central Station.
Do you want to take the best pictures? Then you can join the Semi-open boat cruise. The boat doesn't have any windows, so you are exposed to the colder weather but your view of the light art is perfect! If you prefer to enjoy the festival after a tasty meal, then the Amsterdam Light Festival Cruise with Satay Dinner is for you! The drinks and meal are included in the ticket so you won’t have to worry about a thing while on board.
