Hamburger Hafengeburtstag 2021 (Hamburg Port Anniversary 2021)

Every year in May, more than a million tourists commemorate the Hamburg's Hafengeburtstag (Hamburg 's Port Birthday) on the shores of the Elbe River, which gradually becomes the celebration of the Hamburg harbour. This celebration commemorates the May of 1189 when the port of Hamburg became a tax-free region, and proclaimed the growth of foreign prominence and opulence in Hamburg. All parts of the port (Speicherstadt,  the magnificent concert hall Elbphilharmonie, the famous piers at Landungsbrücken) all turn into a site of jubilant celebrations for 3 days of exclusive fun during the annual HAMBURG 'S PORT ANNIVERSARY! Highpoints typically involve the appearance of about three hundred marine vessels (such as; historic boats, old-fashioned sailing yachts and new travel boats) on the river side, and the annual Tugboat Ballet performance, and dazzling display of fireworks on the river. Citizens will participate in a range of culinary pleasures on the harbor shoreline, including live music performances on various platforms. The dates are set for Friday 7 May until Sunday 9 May 2021.

Hamburg is an important North German port city situated on the Elbe River between the Schleswig-Holstein and Lower Saxony federal states and connected to the North Sea via the Elbe Canal. The town is lined with hundreds of canals and has extensive green fields and parks. Since the days of the medieval Hanseatic League Hamburg has become a free city and a port of foreign significance. Hamburg is the Federal Republic of Germany's city center. Hamburg Harbor is Germany 's main shipping terminal, and Europe's second biggest harbor. The city has many characteristics, be it the tranquility of its canals and summertime Alstersee or other first-class visitor destinations such as the Elbphilharmonie or, of course, the popular Reeperbahn red light area. If you have not yet seen Hamburg, now is the time to come. The area is continually changing and worth a tour at all times.
