50 Years of Flying — Celebrated All Year Long ❤️
This year, we are celebrating 50 Years of the Flying Dutchman — not with one single event, but with many small celebrations spread across 2026.
We want to celebrate with all generations who have supported, visited, and shaped the ship throughout the decades.
Every month of 2026 is dedicated to another music genre, giving each part of the year its own colour, its own sound, and its own story.
We had originally planned one big event off the ship — a beautiful gathering on the mainland. But plans changed, and we decided to stay on board, where the Flying Dutchman feels most at home every weekend. Instead of one large celebration, we’ll be creating many special moments throughout the year, so everyone can find a night that suits them best.
ℹ️ About the newsletter mix‑up:
In our last newsletter, a line from an old template slipped through and mentioned a specific celebration date. To avoid confusion: There is no single anniversary event — the celebration lasts all year.
Every event in 2026 is part of our 50‑year journey, and we’re excited to celebrate this milestone together with you.
Here’s to a full year of Flying Dutchman stories — on board, where the Flying spirit lives. ❤️
