Every 2 years Hamburg celebrates “Hamburg Cruise Days”, which is recognized as one of the world’s most beautiful cruise festivals. It is truly a spectacular celebration of cruise ships and the cruise industry. During the event, Hamburg’s harbour transforms into a vibrant and cheerful hub for sea enthusiasts, as well as locals and tourists who come out for the festivities. This year I was lucky to be an invitee checking out the scene 🙂
The Hamburg Cruise Days features an impressive parade of cruise ships. They sail along the Elbe River, with lots of fireworks, offering a spectacular sight along the waterfront. Visitors can also enjoy various onshore activities, including entertainment, delicious food and drinks (which i had lots of!), and the opportunity to tour the fancy interiors of some of the docked cruise ships.
As part of the event, I had a chance to go on an AIDA cruise, which was a wonderful experience! AIDA Cruises is a German cruise line that specializes in offering fun and luxurious cruise vacations. They provide a wide range of cruise itineraries with lots of amazing destinations across Europe, the Mediterranean and the Caribbean seas. Their itineraries often include stops at popular ports, which gives you a chance to go out and explore different cultures and attractions in many lovely places.

Hamburg Cruise Days is truly a unique opportunity to see some of the world’s most luxurious and impressive cruise ships up close. I was so amazed by the ships, and all the crews and the people around were super nice.
This festival should definitely be on everyone’s bucket list! I was taken away by the festive atmosphere, the charm of cruise travel and the beauty of Hamburg’s waterfront. I recommend for everyone to check it out in the future.
Make sure to start planning for the next festival in 2 years. Hamburg will be celebrating their 10th Hamburg Cruise Days on 12-14 September 2025. I hope to see you there!
