Lampedusa Cruises
Get on board on the World’s most northern refugee boat, alongside its crew of refugees
Join the Lampedusa Cruises Association on a lovely trip in the waters of Copenhagen with food, music and swimming.
The Alhadj Djumaa is the world’s northernmost refugee boat, sailing around canals of Copenhagen with a refugee crew. Onboard food, music and bathing gets spiced up with stories of crossing the Mediterranean in overcrowded boats in the hope of
creating a better life.
It is a well functioning little motorboat and a symbol of global diversities. Join us on a sailing trip for all of those who want a little taste of the good life.
The association Lampedusa Cruises is founded by fix+foxy. The show was produced in collaboration with Trampolinhuset and Eventministeriet. The project was supported by The Danish Arts Council.
Lampedusa Cruises was performed 19 August – 2 September 2016 at the Harbour promenade at Knippelsbro in Copenhagen.
