Poetry Slam

Word art on Hamburg's stages.

Experience culture. Poetry Slam in Hamburg

Hamburg stands for art and culture through and through. And over the years, poetry slams have gained a firm place in Hamburg's cultural programme. Those who want to see young lyrical talents have the opportunity to do so in Hamburg almost every week. The young poet scene meets here regularly on stage to compete and inspire the audience. And with the "artistic duels", the city even has its own unofficial championship. Here, you'll find an overview of current events and the most frequent venues.

    Sankt Pauli Bier Tour - die Astra Story - Die Kult-Bier-Tour der Kiezjungs

    St. Pauli Beer Tour – A journey through the brewing history of the neighborhood

    Our tour starts right at the Hard Rock Cafe Hamburg – in the middle of the Landungsbrücken, where harbor air, wanderlust and beer tradition meet.

    Together we'll raise a glass of ASTRA and delve into the history of a beer inextricably linked to St. Pauli. You'll learn how the beer once accompanied the hard daily lives of dockworkers – and why it remains as much a part of the neighborhood as the cobblestones and neon lights.

    From there, we stroll through St. Pauli and embark on a journey back in time to the district's golden era. Our guides don't tell stories from a history book, but from real life – with North German wit, honest anecdotes, and a glimpse behind the scenes of the neighborhood.

    A key part of the tour is the legendary St. Pauli pub, Zur Ritze. Here, you'll have exclusive access to the famous boxing cellar – a place where world champions trained and local legends made history. And of course, you'll enjoy a genuine Munich Helles – the signature beer of the "Ritze." Why a Bavarian beer in the heart of St. Pauli? We'll explain that on site.

    The grand finale takes you to the Astra Brauhaus on Nobistor . Here you'll sample three different craft beer specialties – brewed by hand, given a modern twist, yet deeply rooted in the neighborhood. A fascinating contrast between tradition and modernity, history and contemporary culture.

    Highlights

    • 2.5-hour St. Pauli beer tour
    • Starting with a bottle of Astra
    • We're going into Hamburg's safest pub - the Other Place - the pub of a well-known motorcycle gang.
    • Visit to the Ritze boxing cellar including a "light beer"
    • Lots of interesting information about the history of the neighborhood
    • The history of Hamburg as a brewery of the Hanseatic League
    • 3 beer tastings at the ASTRA brewery

    Culinary delights at the Christmas market include savory and sweet specialties as well as unique drinks. On the winter deck, alongside popular classics, you'll find a constant stream of new drink creations and a great view of the lively scene.

    SANTA PAULI combines Christmas market and St. Pauli nightlife: colorful, lively and somewhat different from classic Christmas markets.
