The motto of the Hanseatic Day 1998 was “With the Hanseatic League into the future”. Fittingly, the motto chosen for 2025 is “Further together”!
From 5 to 8 June 2025, the Hanseatic Day will take place in the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Old Town, which is surrounded by a 3-kilometre-long medieval city wall. The entire city center will be the scene of market stalls, stages and various spontaneous cultural events from the Hanseatic cities.
At the economic forum, well-known speakers will provide interesting insights into the green transition that is challenging cities and municipalities. The HANSEartWORKS exhibition will be all about performance art. For the first time, an organ festival with the participation of musicians from the Hanseatic cities will also take place as part of the International Hanseatic Day.
Delegations from the Hanseatic cities and visitors are invited to come to Visby for the 25th International Hanseatic Day!
