Silvester - A Quiet Way to End the Year
Details
Event Update – Silvester Gathering
This event has been cancelled due to an unexpected venue constraint beyond my control.
I want to share this openly, because the intention behind this evening mattered to me: to offer a quiet, meaningful alternative for those who didn’t want to welcome the new year through noise, alcohol, or obligation — but through presence and gentle connection.
While this particular gathering can’t take place as planned, the intention continues.
On 01.01.2026, I will be hosting Landing — A Calm Place to Be, Before the Year Begins, an early-evening gathering created in the same spirit: calm, grounded, and without pressure to perform or reflect.
If this resonates with you, you are warmly invited to join us.
Thank you for your understanding — and for being part of this community.

Silvester - A Quiet Way to End the Year
Not everyone wants to end the year with loud music, alcohol, and crowded parties.
This evening is for those who would rather spend New Year’s Eve peacefully, meaningfully, and in good company — without pressure to celebrate in a particular way.
Whether you’re spending this night alone, far from family, new to Munich, or simply craving something calmer and more grounded, you’re warmly invited.
This is not a party.
There will be no loud music, no drinking games, and no fireworks of our own. Instead, we create a calm, welcoming space to share food, conversation, and a gentle closing of the year.
How the evening will unfold
We begin at 8:30 pm.
Everyone is invited to bring a dish to share — homemade or store-bought, simple or special. We’ll eat together unhurriedly and ease into the evening with light conversation.
Later in the evening, with cups of Kinderpunsch in hand, I’ll offer a short, optional reflection moment. Sharing is entirely voluntary — listening is just as welcome.
At midnight, we’ll step outside together to mark the transition into the new year and watch the fireworks from a distance.
We’ll then say goodbye — simply and gratefully — and head home, having kept each other company through the turn of the year.
What this evening is — and isn’t
This evening is:
- calm, human, and welcoming
- lightly guided, not facilitated
- shared without obligation
This evening is not:
- a party
- a therapy session
- a space for heavy processing or fixing
Practicalities
- Doors open at 8:15 pm
- We start at 8:30 pm
- Held in English
- Please bring a dish to share
Contribution: €10 donation (cash only). All proceeds support room rental.
This evening also quietly reflects the direction my events will be taking in 2026 — more intentional, more spacious, and more inward-facing — while remaining warm and human.
If you’re looking for a gentle, meaningful way to end 2025, you’ll be very welcome here.
