Program Sail Amsterdam 2020

On the 12th of August the Sail In will be held. Many beautiful tall ships will arrive that day and sail from IJmuiden to the Amsterdam harbor . A huge fleet of large and small ships will accompany this parade of tall ships. A fantastic spectacle to see and to experience! On Thursday, Friday and Saturday afternoon and evening cruises are sailed with smaller, hospitality ships. The tall ships are in the IJ harbour and the Amsterdam waters are packed with the many boats. Every evening the festival will end with fireworks and live music. Sunday is the Sail Out and the tall ships will be escorted to the open sea. Not as great as during the Sail In but therefore maybe even more fun; you will get a bit closer to the big tall ships and will see the preparations for the voyage which again is before them. Definitely worthwhile!
