Events in 2025

January 2025

On January 21st, we had our first Oxbridge Society Hamburg Stammtisch at Abaton Bistro, and it was a fantastic evening! It was great to see both familiar and new faces, exchanging stories, ideas, and laughter over delicious food and drinks. A big thank you to everyone who joined and made it such a memorable gathering!

Oxbridge Pub Meeting #2

We were happy to invite our members to the second Oxbridge pub meeting (Stammtisch) on Wednesday 19 March 2025 starting 7pm at the Abaton Bistro (Grindelhof 14a, 20146 Hamburg)!

What a fantastic turnout! 🎉

Our second Oxbridge Society Hamburg Stammtisch at Abaton Bistro was a huge success, with around 30 participants—double the number from our first gathering! The enthusiasm exceeded all expectations, so much so that we even ran out of seats. But in true Oxbridge spirit, members turned this challenge into an opportunity—grabbing a drink, mingling, and making new connections in a lively, informal atmosphere.

A big thank you to everyone who joined and contributed to another great evening of conversation and camaraderie. We can’t wait to see you at the next one!

Boat Race 2025

On 13th of April 2025, we met at one of the Hamburger Rowing Clubs on the Alster, to jointly watch the Boat Race between Cambridge and Oxford on the big screen, have some drinks and enjoy the boat activities on the Alster River.

Our live screening of the Oxford Cambridge Boat Race 2025 at the Norddeutscher Regatta Verein was a huge success – an awesome community at a nice venue with decent catering!

It is great to see that our Society is growing further and further in terms of number of participants and number of events!
