In Ostend you can attend the maritime festival Ostend at Anchor from May 28 to 31, 2026.
The mix of unique ships, music performances, animation and everything the nautical world has to offer attracted an impressive 200,000 visitors during the previous edition.
Theme 2026: Caring for the Sea
Our North Sea is under pressure. Pollution, climate change, overfishing, and underwater noise are damaging marine life, while indigenous species are losing ground to invasive newcomers. At Ostend at Anchor, we show not only the challenges but especially the solutions. Under the motto "The Sea takes care of us. Who takes care of our Sea?", we bring inspiring initiatives together and show how companies, organizations, and visitors can help build a healthy sea.
A look back at the previous editions
