Vessel 11
Vessel 11 Rotterdam – historic red British lightship moored in the city harbour

Vessel 11 is a stunning 1951 British red lightship permanently moored at Wijnhaven in the heart of Rotterdam, operating as a gastro pub, live music venue, and exclusive private events location. Originally built in Dartmouth and used as a mobile lighthouse on the south coast of Wales, the ship was lovingly restored and reopened in 2014 as the first British gastropub in the Netherlands. For private groups of 2 to 180 guests, the ship offers several distinct spaces: the Bow Bar (up to 70 guests), the Belly Bar with its live-music stage (up to 70 guests), and the Upper Deck (up to 140 guests in combination). The entire ship can be hired exclusively for up to 180 guests. Onboard facilities include three bars, a PA system, stage, DJ equipment, beamer, microphones, and a full kitchen. The team specialises in walking dinners, BBQs, hot tugs, silent discos, live music, and DJ sets. A character-rich, city-centre location perfectly suited for incentive evenings, team outings, and company celebrations.
