HIGHLIGHTS The most beautiful festivals & street fairs in Hamburg

Look forward to colourful street festivals and thrilling festivals in the Hanseatic city. A visit to the city park for the Open Air Festival is just as worthwhile as the view over the colourful hustle and bustle of Hamburg's harbour birthday or a varied weekend on the MS DOCKVILLE. Throughout the year, exciting festivals and street festivals await you. Don't miss the highlights in the city on the Elbe!
