With the realisation since 2012 of more than 240 light artworks, 10 exhibitions and 5 million visitors, Amsterdam Light Festival has become one of the leading international light art festivals. National and international artists, designers and architects guarantee light sculptures of the very highest standard. From all over the world, they come to Amsterdam every year to showcase their creations. Here a few high-profile parts from past years.
Rederij Belle will take you there
The festival lasts until 23 January. For 53 evenings, Amsterdam’s canals are enchantingly illuminated by artworks and installations.
Our salon boats are built to take you past all the works of art in comfort. Purely festival-oriented, in simple luxury or fully tastefully catered. If you go around Christmas, we will make your tour extra atmospheric with live music. Rederij Belle makes sure you don’t miss a creation. Call us and we will tell you all about the various interesting packages.
Christmas drinks with atmosphere and delicious food
Christmas and the turn of the year, no more beautiful and appropriate time to get together and enjoy friendship, love, collegiality, togetherness and team spirit. Seeing and talking to each other over delicious food and drinks is fitting for the end of a good year and a positive start to a better one.
Especially for those occasions, Rederij Belle has brilliant arrangements. The starting point at all times is a beautiful, comfortable salon boat, fun while cruising, taking advantage of each other’s presence and feasting. You will find that combination in all the options we can offer you. Here are a few cruise examples.
