The boats set off from various starting points and sail past the picturesque Siebengebirge mountain range. At around 9:30 in the evening, the convoy of boats gathers in the south of Bonn. Brightly lit up, it sails past the illuminated riverbanks towards the north of Bonn, before the boats take up their final positions in front of Bonn’s Rheinaue park. Along the 20 or so kilometres of river, illuminated gems await you on the right and left banks. The highlight and perfect finale: the aerial firework display set to music!
