✨ Hike & Pictures x The Social Bee Hive — Social Drinks Night 🍷🐝
The weather’s getting colder, but the vibes are just getting warmer! 💛 Join us on November 14th for a cozy evening of drinks, laughs, great company and happy hour deals all night long as we link up with The Social Bee Hive: a collab bringing together amazing communities from across Amsterdam.
Our RSVP is not a realistic presentation because this event is promoted on different platforms!

Join us for a fun, energetic walk through Haarlem’s charming historic centre during the yearly Christmas market. With nearly 350 stalls spread across the heart of the city, and live music/bands throughout the day, it’s the perfect opportunity to enjoy holiday atmosphere, pick up unique bits and pieces, and capture some great shots.

We’ll start at the station, head into the city centre together, check out the market stalls, walk through quaint streets, stop for warm drinks (and maybe lunch) and just enjoy the festive scenery. The route is flexible — feel free to wander with group or take your own pace.

📷 Photographer’s tip: The market is spread over several streets in the historic centre (including the main square and Grote Markt) and is beautifully lit and decorated. It’s a great location for winter/festive shots, so make sure to bring your camera!

👥 Who’s it for? Everyone who loves christmas market!

👌 What to bring:

• Your camera / smartphone for photos
• Warm clothes
• Comfy shoes for walking
• Some cash and card (some stalls may prefer one or the other)
• List with people you have to buy christmas presents for
• A good spirit 🙂

After the event, you can decide to stay longer to enjoy the rest of the day on the christmas market.

Join us for a creative day in Haarlem with fellow videographers, photographers, content creators, and storytellers!
This meetup is all about connection: meet new people, exchange ideas, and collaborate on spontaneous shoots around the beautiful streets of Haarlem.

You can join us from Amsterdam central station at 11:41. From there this is a 15 minute train towards Haarlem.

☕️ Part 1: Creator Lunch / Networking Drink
We’ll start with a cozy meet-up at a local café (next to the station) to get to know each other. You can share your work, talk gear, brainstorm ideas, or find people to collaborate with. There is also room to ask questions if you are beginner and would like some more insights. Feel free to bring your projects to share them with others as well. This is also the perfect moment to get inspiration for part 2 and get your crew together.

📸 Part 2: City Walk & Content Session
After lunch and a group picture, we’ll head outside for a walk through Haarlem’s picturesque city center. Expect cool photo/video spots, creative challenges, and the chance to capture content together: whether it’s portraits, B-roll, or street photography. This part is free-spirit so feel free to go another direction with your crew if that's what you have in mind. The goal of this part is to create something for your own projects.
