Amsterdam Light Festival: Is it worth it?
December 5, 2025 Events, Outdoor Art, Things to Do

The annual Amsterdam Light Festival is a winter event that combines light, art and — of course — water.
The organization promotes boat-, walking-, and bicycle tours along the 20 light art installations.
2025 marks the festival’s 14th edition. But is it worth it? We show you visitor reviews, share our own opinion, and suggest some excellent alternatives that show the real lights of Amsterdam.
