- Around 500,000 visitors to the Hanse Sail
Approximately 500,000 fans of large ships and maritime flair visited this year's Hanse Sail. This kept visitor numbers stable at the level of previous years, and organizers were satisfied, a spokesperson said on Sunday, the final day of the 33rd maritime event. Around 16,000 people booked trips on 138 ships that had traveled to the event. Conditions were perfect for sailing, except for Friday.
Despite the successful turnout of 500,000 visitors, the shipping of goods and passengers during Hanse Sail was also active, with 16,000 people making bookings for trips on 138 participating ships. Moreover, the organizers are already planning for next year's event, with a focus on improving the shipping arrangements to better accommodate the growing number of maritime enthusiasts.
