Suits & Sneakers Lounge X-Mas Hamburg 2024 Edition

With delicious bratwurst, warming mulled wine and the magical view over the festively lit Hamburg, we were able to end the year together in a relaxed atmosphere.

Thank you for your participation, your conversations and your smiles! We are already looking forward to more inspiring encounters in the new year.
