There are regular events in our bar, to which you are warmly invited as a hostel guest. These can include game nights, concerts, parties, painting and drawing sessions, pub quizzes, or even chess afternoons. Just check out our current program.
Every Tuesday we host a karaoke party. Just come along if you'd like to sing something yourself, write your requested song on the list on the bar.
Every Wednesday, people from all over the world meet at our hostel for BlaBla Language Exchange. The idea is very simple: you agree on a language and talk to each other. This makes it easy to get to know other people and practise your language skills at the same time.
