After a full weekend of Hamburg PORT ANNIVERSARY with its diverse programme, it's time to say ‘Goodbye for now and see you again in 2028.’ The ships that entered the harbour for the Grand Arrival Parade will leave in another spectacular parade. Visitors can watch countless watercrafts in a spectacular show. We hope to see you all again next year at the Landungsbrücken, with a fish roll and a cold drink in hand.
