EASTER
Easter fires in Hamburg
Hamburg is particularly spectacular at Easter
The Easter fires give the city a fiery glow and drive out the winter.
The Easter bonfires on the Elbe are particularly popular. The one on the Elbe beach in Blankenese has become a real tradition for locals and visitors alike. This is not surprising, as the picturesque fishermen’s houses and the majestic Elbe create a very unique atmosphere. Tip: the Easter fires on the Elbe are particularly easy to admire from a launch trip across the river, which you should book early.
Of course, there are also various Easter fires in the other districts of the city to drive away the cold and dark season. You can find the exact locations on the Hamburg city homepage.
Celebrate Easter in the Hamburg region
If you are spending Easter in Hamburg with children, you can also plan a trip to the surrounding area. Easter is always celebrated with a big festival in the Lüneburg Heath wildlife park; of course, this includes many attractions for the little ones.
