Terneuzen – Havendagen 2027

Havendagen Terneuzen 2027 takes place from Friday, 25 June to Sunday, 27 June 2027. The organiser has already explicitly announced these three days as the 45 edition on the official website. Havendagen combines maritime experiences on the Westerschelde with a harbour market, music, ship visits and a traditional funfair. However, a complete programme for 2027, individually confirmed by the organiser, has not yet been published. So here you can find the confirmed festival dates and an overview of the event, without presenting old concert dates as new.

Havendagen Terneuzen 2027: Official dates

For the 45 edition, the organisers explicitly give 25, 26 and 27 June 2027. These are Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This means the dates in the working list match the organiser's current dates. The City of Terneuzen has listed Havendagen as a recurring event in its calendar since 1981. This long-standing event connects the town centre with the harbour area and attracts locals as well as visitors from Zeeland and the border region year after year.

Harbour festival on the Westerschelde

The maritime programme is at the heart of Havendagen. At previous editions, visitors could see ships up close, take part in cruises or watch demonstrations on and by the water. Rescue and tugboats as well as maritime associations also played a part. The organiser's website still shows these activities in the programme for the 2026 edition. They indicate the event's usual character, but are not individually confirmed programme items for 2027. The ships and cruises taking part have not yet been announced.

Havendagen Terneuzen 2027: Funfair and harbour market

The funfair is also part of Havendagen. The official programme flyer 2026 announced a funfair on the Rondweg from Friday to Sunday. A harbour market with numerous stalls also took place on Saturday and Sunday. For 2027, neither a specific line-up of rides nor the individual market traders or opening hours have been confirmed. Therefore, rides from the previous year are not automatically included, and no traders are presented as confirmed. Further announcements from the organiser can be added here.

Live music and special activities

Live music, the Havendagenrun, rowing competitions and a wide-ranging family programme are traditionally part of the festival. The City of Terneuzen also mentions the regular fireworks displays at previous editions. Although the current organiser's website shows numerous artists and times, some of these pages still contain information and days of the week from 2026. They should therefore not be treated as the final programme for 2027. You should only make firm plans for artists, special activities and any fireworks after clear confirmation has been published for 2027.

Venue, getting there and parking

Traditionally, the festival site is spread across Terneuzen town centre and the harbour area. In 2026, the city listed Scheldeboulevard as a landmark for Havendagen; the organiser also names Veerplein, Veerhaven and Rondweg for individual activities. Scheldeboulevard is therefore marked on our map as a historically documented starting point. A final site plan for the 2027 edition is not yet available. Before your visit, it is worth checking access routes, road closures and recommended parking areas.

Opening hours, admission and official sources

The exact daily funfair opening hours, admission conditions and ride prices for 2027 are not yet known. The start times for individual concerts or boat trips may also change. We therefore do not provide a made-up timetable or programme. Find more dates in the funfair calendar. Official information is available from the Havendagen Terneuzen website and the City of Terneuzen, with its report on the 2026 edition. This information from the previous year should be treated as a historical reference.
