Celebrate Maine’s rich maritime heritage during the 64th Annual Windjammer Days Festival, happening June 21–27, 2026, in Boothbay Harbor. This iconic week-long event features tall ships, fireworks, parades, pirates, and family-friendly fun — and Linekin Bay Resort is your ideal home base, located just minutes from the harbor.
For over six decades, Windjammer Days has marked the official start of summer in the Boothbay region. Founded in 1963, the festival brings together locals and visitors to honor the traditions of seafaring life — with sailing ship arrivals, colorful parades, music, games, and waterfront festivities for all ages. Hosted by the nonprofit Friends of Windjammer Days, this beloved event is steeped in history, community, and adventure.
Exact dates and times for individual events will be announced in spring 2026. We’ll update this page as the schedule is confirmed.
