The parade was led by AIDAprima<\/strong>, and each of the following ships was celebrated with its own individual firework display. The evening ended in dazzling style with a colourful firework show over the river.<\/p>\n Great enthusiasm for cruises <\/strong><\/p>\n The incredible enthusiasm shown by the audience shows clearly that Hamburg and cruises belong together.
