Amsterdam Light Festival 2024 – 2025
As the winter months envelop Amsterdam in darkness, the city undergoes a stunning metamorphosis into an enchanting open-air light museum during the Amsterdam Light Festival.

The festival’s 13th edition is themed Rituals, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in a world of creativity and reflection.
Light is an essential element in countless rituals, symbolizing joy, remembrance, and celebration. Whether it’s the crackling of fireworks, the warmth of bonfires, or the soft glow of candles on a birthday cake, light holds profound significance in various cultural traditions.
