Beurs van Berlage proud fan of SAIL 2025
This summer, SAIL will not only be mooring in the port of Amsterdam, but also in the heart of the city: the Beurs van Berlage. As proud fans of this iconic event, we will be hosting the SAIL Summit on Friday August 22nd, as well as the festive drinks reception after the Crew Parade.
SAIL Summit – Wind in the Sails
The SAIL Summit is all about sustainability, inclusion, talent development and safety in cities. Policymakers, companies and other stakeholders will come together in our monumental halls to share ideas, present innovative solutions and build vibrant and liveable cities. The role that events play in this will also be examined. Part of the programme is a backstage tour of innovations at the SAIL site.
The Summit is exclusively accessible to invited guests and is made possible in part by the Beurs van Berlage.
Crew Parade & drinks
From 3 to 5 PM, the colourful Crew Parade will wind its way through the city: a lively procession of international crews, music and maritime pride. Immediately afterwards, we will welcome participants and guests to drinks at the Beurs van Berlage, where we will organise a festive conclusion to this special afternoon in the heart of Amsterdam.
We are proud to offer this stage to one of the city’s most beloved events. Marcel Schonenberg, Managing Director of the Beurs van Berlage, says: ‘The Beurs van Berlage is proud to provide a platform for an event that, like us, is rooted in the city and focused on connection, innovation and international cooperation.’ As a historical icon, we feel a strong connection to SAIL, which once again this year demonstrates how Amsterdam brings people and ideas together.
