The Hafengeburtstag Hamburg 2027 takes place from Thursday 6 to Sunday 9 May along the Elbe, centred on the Landungsbrücken in St. Pauli.
What is the Hamburg Port Anniversary?
Hamburg's Port Anniversary calls itself the world's largest port festival. Tall ships, cruise ships, tugboats and museum ships fill the river, with a parade of ships, a famous tugboat ballet and a festival mile along the waterfront with food, music and fireworks.
How do you get to the Port Anniversary by chauffeur?
The waterfront around the Landungsbrücken and the Hafenstraße is closed or very busy during the festival, and hundreds of thousands of visitors attend. Your chauffeur will drop you at a practical point near the festival mile, for example near Baumwall or the Michel, and collect you there later.
Planning your visit
- Check the programme for the parade of ships and fireworks.
- Book Elbe-view restaurants in advance.
- Agree a pick-up point away from the Landungsbrücken.
- Expect big crowds on Saturday.
