9th edition
this year's theme:
When Nature Calls
Every winter Amsterdam Light Festival transforms Amsterdam's city centre into an open-air light museum. Tailor-made art pieces and installations by contemporary (international) artists, designers, and architects light up the city.
The 30 light artworks can be admired by foot, bike or boat. You can do this on your own initiative or by booking a boat tour.
A selection is made from hundreds of submitted concepts. Together with the artists, designers and architects, the festival works to realize the concepts into light artworks, which are presented from the end of November.
The role of light in conveying a message and the city of Amsterdam as a medium for telling stories are central to this edition.
Due to the regulations concerning COVID-19, the well known boat experience of Amsterdam Light Festival will be skipped this year.
