Archipelago Boat Day
It is 60 years since Archipelago Boat Day was organized for the first time. In the newspapers' reports from the evening of June 10, 1964, the hope was expressed that it would become an annual event. And so it has turned out, far beyond expectations! After 60 years, Archipelago Boat Day has become the given and traditional way of celebrating the beginning of summer, at Strömkajen in Stockholm and in Vaxholm.
You are most welcome to participate, bring family, relatives and friends and acquaintances on Wednesday, June 12, a whole evening with a trip to the archipelago town of Vaxholm to experience the early summer evening there. The ships depart from Strömkajen in Stockholm at 18.00 for a joint journey to Vaxholm. In Vaxholm is a party for the summer with market, music, entertainment and activities. After the evening in Vaxholm, the ships depart again for Stockholm, regular berths, at 21.30.
