Amsterdam, the city of romantic canals and magical bridges, is once again ready to come alive this winter with one of its most unique events, the Amsterdam Light Festival.

This year's edition is dedicated to Legacy, and it will see the canals of the city become a real canvas. The festival is spread across no fewer than 30 locations throughout the city.
Along the canals, various light installations tell a story, inspire, and invite the audience to observe the beauty of the public space in a different light.
