Amsterdam Light Festival: 1 December 2022 – 22 January 2023
In 2022, the Amsterdam Light Festival will kick off for the 11th time! From 1 December until 22 January, there will again be numerous beautiful works of art to admire, characterised by the use of different light effects. The theme of 2022 is Imagine Beyond. The creators of all artworks want to make you question what you are really seeing! Am I really seeing this or is this an optical illusion? Does what I see now speak to my imagination or can it really be true?
Cruise past 20 works of art
From hundreds of entries, the jury has chosen several works of art. The 20 chosen artworks may finally be exhibited to the general public in December after months of preparations. The artworks can be seen via a walking route but naturally shine brightest when approached from the water. The water will add some extra sparkle to the artworks with Amsterdam’s canals as background. The lights of all artworks will be on from 17.00 to 23.00 and open for visitors. The Amsterdam Light Festival is a widely supported festival open to all!
