Harbour festivities

Blankenberge is all about ebb and flow. The sea runs through our veins. But in Blankenberge, we also love to keep things down-to-earth and embrace our folkloric side. The annual Harbour Festival, taking place from Thursday 14 May to Sunday 17 May 2026, is the perfect example. Expect a vibrant mix of impressive ships, live music, flea markets, traditional fishing crafts and folklore.

During these four festive days, locals and visitors gather in the maritime heart of the city to enjoy a warm and lively atmosphere together.
