Hamburg Festival is returning for a second year, bringing Londoners a taste of the German city.
Last year’s event brought a burst of music, tastes and culture from Hamburg to London and this year they look to build on the success, which saw a footfall of over 11,000.
On September 1st-2nd, Hamburg on Tour (organised by the Hamburg Convention Bureau) will be back and bringing along with it a fabulous one-of-a-kind pop up event.
Shoreditch will once again showcase this lively and vibrant city through food, art and live music.
Hamburg’s metropolitan region hosts over 100 lively festivals each year and with the opening of the iconic Elbphilharmonie Hamburg concert hall last year, the Hanseatic City is now more than ever a thriving music capital.
The free event has teamed up with a host of exciting Hamburg festivals including: Elbjazz, Wacken Open Air, Hurricane Festival and Reeperbahn Festival, all bringing a selection of their bands to the London stage for two days of great live music.
The festivals range in music styles from rock and jazz to metal and alternative – bringing a taste of all musical genres for Londoners to enjoy.
Hamburg Festival will bring a taste of Hamburg to Londoners through its live music, eye-catching art installations and interactive programme of activities in-house and on the streets of London.
