The Nagasaki Tall Ship Festival takes place towards the end of April each year in the spectacular backdrop of Nagasaki Harbor.
Typically the event features a number of square rigged tall ships with their billowing sails providing a romantic glimpse into the bygone days when wind power dominated global shipping.
As part of the festival, there will events on land and at sea including a sail past, races, a chance to go on board the boats while docked, short cruises, evening light-ups of the vessels, markets and fireworks in the evening on the final Saturday and Sunday.
