The HAMBURG YACHTFESTIVAL offers a new dimension of boat show at the heart of the Hamburg Yacht Harbor in Wedel. This unique In-Water Boat Show fills a gap in the autumn trade show offerings for the boating industry in Hamburg. Following the discontinuation of the hanseboot, there was a great need for a new and exciting event for water sports enthusiasts along the Elbe and the North Sea, and it has been realized. The festival is organized by the agency Yachtfestival365, which is also responsible for Germany's largest in-water boat festival, the ancora YACHTFESTIVAL in Neustadt in Holstein. Visitors can look forward to impressive boats and yachts moored at the Hamburg Yacht Harbor. Exhibitors showcase a premium selection of equipment and services in pagoda tents. Additionally, the festival features a diverse stage and activity program centered around boating, including exciting lectures, workshops, and spectacular performances. The HAMBURG BOAT SHOW coincides with the large harbor festival organized by numerous clubs at the Hamburg Yacht Harbor. Concurrently, the Sailing Days of the German Sailing Association and the Safety Days of the Cruiser Division Club take place. A special highlight is the large maritime flea market, where visitors can rummage for treasures and discover unique maritime souvenirs. The HAMBURG YACHTFESTIVAL will take place on 3 days from Friday, 05. September to Sunday, 07. September 2025 in Wedel.
