SAIL-IN PARADE

After a two-year voyage around the globe, Clipper Stad Amsterdam returns home on 20 August — just in time to celebrate her homecoming during SAIL 2025.  Marking this special occasion, the Clipper will lead the Sail-in Parade as flagship of the fleet. This grand maritime procession, stretching over 11 kilometres, features hundreds of vessels and offers a truly breathtaking spectacle. You can watch the parade along the North Sea Canal as the fleet makes its way to Amsterdam, or follow the journey via our social media channels.

During SAIL, the Clipper will be open to visitors each morning between 10:00 and 12:00. Our crew will warmly welcome you on board and are delighted to share stories about the ship, her extraordinary voyage around the world, and life at sea.
