Amsterdam Gay Pride is without a doubt one of the happiest events of the year. This year the event takes place from Saturday July 25 til Saturday 8th of August. During these days there will be festivities and celebrations all over town. The highlight is the Canal Parade on Saturday August 1. And you can be there with Amsterdam's best spots.
For the Amsterdam Canal Parade we offer you and your friends a package with drinks and snacks, and the best spots at the most special location (next to the Westertoren) in the city. Private front row seats for the parade (see images). We have 18 pedal boats and 2 sloops, however all spots have been booked for 2026.
Besides a great party:
During the Amsterdam pride period except for August 1st we do still offer pedal boats from several locations, including the Anne Frank Location to cruise around the city in the most sustainable manner. Besides the Pedal boats we also have a wide variety of cruises and diner cruises available during this period.
While the Netherland's biggest parade celebrating all things LGBTQ+ occurs in August, during Pride Month in June you can still celebrate love and unity at Utrecht's Pride Parade. Utrecht's canals turn into a magical wonderland of love and glitter on Saturday the 6th of June and you can share in the love and the fun with canal-side seating aboard pedal boats right along the Oudegracht, the main canal running through Utrecht. Reserve your Pedal boat spot here.
Ofcourse you can also reserve a pedal boat to cruise through the Utrecht canals on other days during this period except for June the 6th.
Catch a breath from the crowded bridges and sidewalks, and sit back and cheer on all those involved in the Pride Parade. Feel the love and the pride as the colourful boats and barges drift through the canal and pass right by your pedal boat seating.
We hope to see you there on June 6th!
