Hi All, Let's just gather for New Year's Eve. Whether you are new to Luxembourg, your plans got cancelled, you never had plans or whatever, just join us. This is nothing formal. Simply approach us. We are (mostly) harmless. We will occupy a corner at Liquid and have a nice chat, some drinks etc. The DJ will start playing at 22:00. If you have any questions, let me know. Jörg

New Year’s resolutions? We don’t know her. 🙅‍♀️✨ But Chiche’s food? Yes. Absolutely. Deeply. 😌🍽️🔥 New Years Special 60 euros per person: https://www.chiche.lu/copie-de-new-years-eve-special Join us for a night of delicious Middle Eastern dishes, questionable life choices, and the kind of group energy that says, “We’ve survived another year, we deserve carbs.” 😂💪 Expect laughs, chaos, and plates you’ll want to guard with your life. 🛡️🍲 ✨ Ridiculously good food 😍 ✨ New friends who might become accomplices 😏 ✨ Zero judgment, maximum fun 🎉🔥 Important(ish) but actually important: Seating is limited, so please RSVP only if you’re truly coming — aka don’t hit “Join” if you’re secretly hoping Beyoncé invites you somewhere better. 🐝😅 If your plans change, be a hero 🦸 and update your attendance so someone else can slide into your spot 💺➡️.

**Already completed Level 1? Ready to take your storytelling to the next level?** This advanced, 2-day workshop is designed for storytellers who want to refine and elevate their craft, deepening emotional impact, exploring subtlety, and mastering the art of resonance. Across two immersive days, you’ll work with your own stories to: ✨ Strengthen your emotional arc: build tension and release for greater impact 🤫 Explore subtext and silence: say more by saying less 🎯 Craft powerful hooks and payoffs: open and close your stories with purpose 🕊️ Weave in symbolism and imagery: add depth and emotional texture. Through guided exercises, feedback, and performance practice, you’ll learn to make deliberate artistic choices that move your audience on a deeper level. Whether you tell stories on stage, in the classroom, or in everyday life, this workshop will help you find the emotional heartbeat of your storytelling voice. Who it’s for: Participants who have completed Level 1 or have prior storytelling experience. Duration: 2 days Language: English [Book your place here](https://fienta.com/storytelling-level-2) **When is it?** The 2-day workshop takes place on the following dates: **15:00-19:00 on Saturday 10 January** **11:00-17:00 on Sunday 11 January** **To get the most out of the workshop, I strongly recommend participants attend both sessions.** On the last day, there will be a chance for everyone to tell their own story in front of the group, if they feel comfortable. **What is storytelling?** Storytelling is the social and cultural activity of sharing stories, sometimes with improvisation, theatrics, or embellishment. Every culture has its own stories or narratives, which are shared as a means of entertainment, education, cultural preservation or instilling moral values. If you're new to storytelling, I recommend checking out Mike Birbiglia and The Moth Hour on Youtube to understand our definition of live storytelling. **What is storytelling not?** For this workshop, we will not be reading written texts aloud although the workshop does involve writing. Storytelling in this workshop is not a kind of therapy, although we will be examining our personal narratives to extract authentic stories for sharing. **What should I bring with me?** Please bring a notebook, pen, and a personal story that you want to develop further. There will also be plenty of games and group work, so it is essential that participants can attend both sessions. Included in the participation fee is tea and coffee. You may also bring your own food and there will be refreshment breaks over the three days. Because of space limitations, advance registration is compulsory. **The instructor** [Jess Bauldry](https://www.jessbauldry.eu/) is a journalist, writer and performer of stand-up comedy. She has an MA in creative writing from the University of Hull and has studied storytelling at Mezrab. A UK/Luxembourg national, she co-founded feminist comedy festival Festrogen and is part of the Luxembourg comedy collective Frilly Curtains Comedy. Both host storytelling events. This workshop is organised with the generous support of Cid Fraen an Gender.

Vendredi 2. janvier à 18:30 - Dimanche 4. janvier 2026 à 17:00 CID Fraen an Gender, Luxembourg Tout le monde a une histoire à raconter. Mais raconter des histoires personnelles ne vient pas naturellement à tout le monde. Dans cet atelier en trois parties destiné aux adultes, vous apprendrez à raconter une histoire riche et personnelle et à emmener votre public dans votre sillage. **Quand a-t-il lieu ?** L'atelier de trois jours se déroule aux dates suivantes : **Vendredi 2 janvier, de 18 h 30 à 21 h** **13h00-19h00 le samedi 3 janvier** **13h00-17h00 le dimanche 4 janvier** **Afin de tirer le meilleur parti de l'atelier, je recommande vivement aux participants d'assister aux trois journées.** Le dernier jour, chacun aura la possibilité de raconter son histoire devant le groupe, s'il le souhaite. Le prix de participation comprend le thé et le café. Vous pouvez également apporter votre propre nourriture et des pauses rafraîchissements seront prévues pendant les trois jours. En raison du nombre de places limité, l'inscription préalable est obligatoire. [Acheter un ticket](https://fienta.com/fr/master-the-art-of-live-storytelling-3-day-course-janvier2026-156097) **Qu'est-ce que le storytelling ?** Le storytelling est une activité sociale et culturelle qui consiste à partager des histoires, parfois avec de l'improvisation, des effets théâtraux ou des embellissements. Chaque culture a ses propres histoires ou récits, qui sont partagés à des fins de divertissement, d'éducation, de préservation culturelle ou d'inculcation de valeurs morales. Si vous découvrez le storytelling, je vous recommande de regarder Mike Birbiglia et The Moth Hour sur Youtube pour comprendre notre définition du storytelling en direct. **Qu'est-ce que le storytelling n'est pas ?** Dans le cadre de cet atelier, nous ne lirons pas de textes écrits à haute voix, même si l'atelier implique de l'écriture. Le storytelling dans cet atelier n'est pas une forme de thérapie, même si nous examinerons nos récits personnels afin d'en extraire des histoires authentiques à partager. **Que dois-je apporter ?** Veuillez apporter un cahier et un stylo. Vous n'avez pas besoin de venir avec une histoire en tête. Je vous fournirai une histoire. Au cours des trois jours, je vous guiderai pas à pas à travers le processus de reformulation d'une histoire existante, de recherche de votre propre histoire et d'identification du message. Il y aura également de nombreux jeux et travaux de groupe, il est donc essentiel que les participants puissent assister aux trois sessions. **La formatrice** [Jess Bauldry](https://www.jessbauldry.eu/) est journaliste, écrivaine et artiste de stand-up. Elle est titulaire d'une maîtrise en écriture créative de l'université de Hull et a étudié l'art du storytelling à Mezrab. De nationalité britannique et luxembourgeoise, elle a cofondé le festival de comédie féministe Festrogen et fait partie du collectif de comédie luxembourgeois Frilly Curtains Comedy. Ces deux collectifs organisent des événements de storytelling. Cet atelier est organisé avec le généreux soutien de Cid Fraen an Gender.

Hello friends, It feels like "*the last hike of this year*" to me, because I'm planning it now, but in fact it will be the first hike of the year 2026, our traditional *"Happy New Year Hangover Hike"* 💫🧨✨🚀 We went the first time on 1st of January in 2020, we skipped it during the "Corona Winter" 2020/2021, resuming in 2022, which makes this the 6th time! Let me know when we meet, how many of these you attended! Let's grab some fresh air after our New Year's parties, let's wish each other a happy New Year, and let's make sure that our alcohol level goes down more slowly by consuming our leftover alcohol from last night 🤪 If there is no concept of "leftover alcohol" in your mindset, you might want to buy an extra bottle.🍾 Otherwise, feel free to bring whatever you like! 🍪🥮🍫 We will meet at the tram/bus station *"Hamilius"* at 12:00 and start the hike around 12:15. **I strongly encourage everyone to get there by public transport!** There are buses all over the place, you can take the tram or bus to *"Hamilius"* or take a bus to *"Monterey"* or *"Badanstalt";* both are within 5 minutes of walking distance 🚎🚌 I hope that everyone will be in a good mood and that you can avoid driving. There will be Glühwein, cremant, and wine; sometimes in the past, we even had champagne!🍷🥂🍾 **Itinerary:** We will walk down to Grund and Clausen, a bit towards Neudorf, then up onto the Kirchberg plateau, where I will try to discover a new area 🥾🥾 Last year, I didn't find the path, because the environment was very different in reality than it looked on the map. This time I'm more confident, and if we find it, there will be some great views across Clausen towards the city. Whether we find it or not, our next stop will be on the Kirchberg Plateau, another great view from there. Finally, we will traverse Pfaffenthal, where we are trying to find out how many hiking groups will fit into the Pfaffenthal elevator. My bet: Exactly one! Our walk will end at the Christmas market *"Wanterpark"* on the *"Kinnekswiss*". There are many options for great food and drinks, and there is a protected space where we can sit without getting cold 🍺🍷🧆🍤🥘🍗🌭🍺 The planned location for our break is the newly discovered area on the Weimershof side of the Kirchberg Plateau, if the intensity and direction of the wind allow for it. Otherwise, we continue to Kirchberg and hide in the fortifications 🏰 There, we can share our leftover Christmas cookies and drinks from the New Year parties. I will bring Glühwein and cremant and I count on you, as usual, for additional supplies! 🥂🍾🍷🍪🥮🍫🥂 The hike is at your own risk, and everyone is responsible for his/her own safety! Looking forward to hiking with you! Jens

Hello Friends! This will be the last time I'll drag you to a Christmas Market this winter, I promise! But the Austrian "Spinat Knödel" are too good, I want them one more time. If you never tried, I highly recommend, and you know what? Let me buy one for everyone who completed all the hikes of 2026! It's a different path this time again, we did parts of it already in the past, but not the whole thing end to end. Starting from Howald via Hesperange and Pulvermühl, we go back to the city, ending up at the "Wantermaart" around "Gelle Fra". Depending on the weather, our mood, and physical condition, we can do a shortcut in the end, not descending to Grund and not climbing the famous 68 steps from the Petrusse valley to place de constitution. And if someone is totally exhausted, there's an "emergency exit" in Bonnevoie/Hamm, you can take bus 9 from "Kofferfabrik" to Hamilius and wait on the Christmas market until the group arrives. We will take a few short breaks to have a sip of water or munch on a snack, but there will be no lunch break, as we plan to enjoy the food and drinks at the Christmas market after the hike, such as Bratwurst, Glühwein, Gromperekichelcher, and - of course - Spinatknödel!!! **Meeting Point:** We will meet at the tram stop "Scillas" in Howald. There are not many trains going south, but a tram every few minutes. https://maps.app.goo.gl/c2A9jyEHhWE9XNqRA If you happen to take a train to Howald from the south, like RB 6785, leaving Esch at 10:02, Schifflange at 10:06, the Howald tram station is just around the corner from Howald Gare. This is not a loop; we will start in Howald and end in the city center. Hamilius tram stop is 2 minutes from the Christmas market, you can get back there easily, in the unlikely event that you came by car and left it in Howald. Looking forward to having the last Glühwein of the season with you! (at least on a Christmas market, there might be Glühwein on some hikes again) Jens.

Join us as we get the New Year started with one of the best films of the year: THE SECRET AGENT! This political thriller from Brazil is set in 1977 where a man flees from a mysterious past and returns to his hometown but soon finds the city is far from being the refuge he seeks. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: In 1977, a former professor flees from a mysterious past and returns to his hometown of Recife in search of peace. He soon realizes that the city is far from being the refuge he seeks. The film stars Wagner Moura, Carlos Francisco, Tânia Maria, Robério Diógenes, Maria Fernanda Cândido, Gabriel Leone and Udo Kier in his final film role. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UfrzDKrhEc BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The Secret Agent was the most awarded film at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival where it won Best Actor for Wagner Moura, Best Director for Mendonça Filho, the Art House Cinema Award and the FIPRESCI Prize. At this year’s Golden Globes, it became Brazil’s first film ever to be nominated for Best Film (Drama)! It also received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Foreign Film, a Best Actor nomination for Wagner Moura and was selected as Brazil’s entry for Best International Film at this year’s Academy Awards. The film is receiving an incredible 99% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics say, its “compelling script, impeccable acting, and striking 1970s aesthetic” make it “impossible to look away!” Critics say The Secret Agent is “one of the few standout movies of the year” and the Chicago Tribune calls it a “masterpiece of a film” and “the best film of the year!” PARKING: Close, convenient parking is available in the nearby garage (located between 9th and 11th, just off High St). Bring your ticket with you and have it validated at the theater and for $2, you’re covered for the night! PLAN: Details for this event have been confirmed! A bit of a good news/bad news situation with the showtime. I was afraid it may disappear before we got a chance to see it! Its down to one showing at one theater.
