Harbour 8 event space and restaurant
Following the success of 2025, Restaurant Harbour 8 and the event space return to Metstrade in 2026.
Set against the backdrop of Amsterdam’s iconic waterfront, Harbour 8 offers a dual experience that reflects the spirit of Metstrade: a purpose-built event space and a refined restaurant concept, each designed to foster connection, efficiency and innovation.
Improved amenities
This year, we invite you to experience a varied menu featuring a selection of carefully prepared dishes, bringing together fresh ingredients and distinctive flavours. Our lunch is designed to be enjoyed in a short period of time, offering an innovative way to make the most of your time while visiting Metstrade.
This is the restaurant where maritime excellence meets culinary innovation. Our focus is on providing a seamless and down-to-earth experience, allowing for meaningful connections and collaboration.


Purpose-built hospitality and event space
During Metstrade, Harbour 8 evolves into a dedicated event space where the marine industry gathers to celebrate innovation and leadership.
From the Official Opening & DAME Design Awards on 17 November to the Boat Builder Awards gala dinner on 18 November and the lively Yacht Racing Forum – Sailors' Night on 19 November, each evening offers a unique opportunity to connect, reflect and collaborate.
